Stone Soup is tailor made for parents who home school. One of the great benefits of homeschooling is individualized instruction. Rather than a one-size-fits-all creative writing curriculum, you can tailor lessons for your child. In this way, you build on your child’s strengths. But the disadvantage of working with one, or at most a few children at a time, is that instruction necessarily takes place isolated from other children. In the best classroom settings children working together on the same or similar projects inspire each other.
This is where Stone Soup comes in. Stone Soup plays an invaluable role in the context of the homeschooling environment. It helps you, as the teacher, evaluate where your children place in terms of writing skills with the best students their age. It also offers your child works by other children to inspire them to write and to do their best. We encourage you to look through the sample issue posted on this site, and to look through stories, poems, and book reviews at our archive site.
We offer you a great deal of material at our web site for free, including creative writing curriculum. But it is clear to us from letters we receive from readers that children are uniquely impressed with seeing the work by other children in print and so we encourage you to both make the most of what we offer on this web site, and also to subscribe.
