Searching Writing Program 4th grade easy to use

[purplecow7]

I am searching for a writing program for a 4th grader. He has trouble getting his ideas on paper. He knows the grammer rules and is a great speller when tested with words, but is having difficulty using them when he writes.

I am looking for a program that will work well for afterschooling, once or twice a week. He is in a GT program and basically doing everything at a 5th grade level and has a ton of homework on a daily basis.

Then for me, I need something that is easy to use - as I juggle working and 3 other children ages 8,5,5. My favorite program is HOP because it came in an easy to use and easy to keep track of program.

Thanks for your help.

Take a look at Meaningful Composition (http://www.tfths.com/comp.php). It is Christian-based.

Wordsmith Apprentice which is considered a prelude to Write Shop.

That will be our approach with my daughter who will turn 10 this May and will start 5th grade. In the order above, then several years down the road maybe incorporating IEW.
