The Lost
Tools of Writing
Better Writing, Better Teaching, Better Thinking
Level 2
Now available, The Lost Tools of Writing™,
Level Two, is meant primarily for students who have completed
Level One of the program. Carefully building on the structure
and lessons of Level One, Level Two includes a new emphasis on
Narrative writing, dozens of new tools, and
lessons on three new kinds of essay writing. A few of the brand
new features are listed below.


FEATURES OF LEVEL TWO
A brand new storytelling unit
▪
12 more schemes & tropes
▪
Judicial & Deliberative essays
▪
Descriptive essay
▪
More on the comparison essay
▪
Two brand new topics
As Level Two is intended for students who have already
completed

Level One, it is primarily going to be a high school text.
However, it
is certainly applicable to younger students who have made their
way
completely through the entirety of Level One. The lessons and
methods
in Level Two build upon those introduced in Level One, so any student
who jumps straight into this new level will be very confused.
After all, writing is an art, like music or painting. Thus
it's skills build upon each other. You must have a firm
foundation in the elementary skills before you can go on to the
more advanced skills.
That said, if your student has learned to write through a program
rooted primarily in the skill and art of imitation than they
will probably be comfortable adapting to The Lost Tools of
Writing™, Level Two.
We recommend a methodical and purposeful pace be adapted
according to the needs and skills of your student(s).

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"Hey, this stuff
works, by the way. My kids' writing is improving quickly. Next semester
this composition class will turn into "Speech." I am saving up some of
the schemes and tropes for use therein."
- Kevin C., California
"I knew I would
learn about writing. I didn't know I would learn so much about thinking,
and virtue, and my heavenly Father. Thank you."
- Diana A., Texas
"Lately I've been
engaging in what I can only describe as "informal LTW seminars" with the
homeschoolers at my church. The reaction is always the same. Literal tears
as they are encouraged to teach from a place of peace and rest, not anxiety."
- Angelina S., Louisiana
"I was an attendee
at your LTW talk in Boca Raton. I reported to my husband that it was one
of the top 5 seminars I have ever been to on any subject. Thank you for
the experience of contemplation!
- Andrea H., Florida
" Here is...
one great program. Check it out, then buy it, then rejoice at how great
it is! I am a big fan if you can’t tell!"
