A Quiver of Arrows includes book selections and copywork passages selected with new readers and writers in mind. If you have children who are beyond The Wand but not quite ready for The Arrow, Brave Writer's new collection, A Quiver of Arrows, may be just what you need!

This particular set of ten digital guides uses shorter literature passages than the regular Arrows, and includes a French-style dictation passage each week. French-style dictation is a modified dictation practice that isolates individual words for spelling in context (full explanation of French-style dictation in the product itself).

Brave Writer's Help for High School is the solution to your writing needs for teens. Most high school writing materials are designed to explain academic writing formats. Help for High School goes further. It helps teens learn how to think, argue and create their own powerful writing style at the same time.

Help for High School is written directly to your 13-18 year old student. Teens will find writing exercises that expand their command of language, their competence in arguing a point, the role of narrative writing in the academic format, how to write both exploratory and expository essays, where to find the right tools for documenting sources and more.

The Arrow is a language arts subscription program that provides support for development in spelling, punctuation and grammar for children ages 8-12.

Using the practices of copywork and dictation, each of the ten monthly issues in a one year subscription to the Arrow includes:

• Four dictation passages selected from one novel each month. These passages will highlight not only grammar and punctuation, but also beautiful, cogent writing. The Arrow explains why I selected the passages and what you can share with your kids when you use them, one per week.
• One literary element of the month. Each issue defines and explains a literary element such as rhyme, alliteration, metaphor, characterization, opening hooks, dialog and so on. It includes four examples of that literary element in action taken from literature (various sources) that can be used as copywork during the month as well, if you like.
• One writing tip, game or exercise to try with your kids.
