This is Matt Whitling's writing curriculum, developed and used for years at Logos School, the pioneering classical Christian school in Moscow, Idaho.

Imitation is how most of us learn anything—from learning a new language to mastering a skill. Why do we neglect his powerful tool when it comes to learning to write?

Look Inside the Curriculum

Imitation in Writing is a curriculum that teaches students to write by giving students simple stories to retell in their own words. Students are given step-by-step instructions on how to outline, retell, and edit their retellings of classic fables, myths, and legends.

Designed by veteran Logos School teacher and superintendent Matt Whitling, this curriculum is perfect for both classrooms and for homeschoolers. Whether your student is eager to write or struggles with it, Imitation in Writing allows students to get plenty of practice writing.

This new edition has been specially adapted with several new features:

  • Weekly schedules for both classrooms and homeschoolers

Not REAL wood - particle board with veneer - but still beautiful.
Color: 1set, Size: 24inch, Color: 1set, Size: 24inch
Came on time, easy to assemble, relatively easy to install. Metal rods are actually metal, which is nice. Flanges are good quality, very nice rustic look. Shelves are less wonderful. They are definitely not real wood at all. They are cheap particle board with veneer. I would not have purchased had I read more reviews, BUT it is still beautiful, sturdy and does the trick. We can always cut our own shelves if we should so choose and re-use the very nice hardware. 4/5 for misrepresenting as real wood, but 5/5 for functionality and aesthetic.

Perfect Blend of Style and Functionality!
Size: 48in, Color: 3tier
Couldn't be happier with the results! The combination of black galvanized pipes and thick wooden shelves adds a rustic yet modern touch to my decor. These shelves are incredibly sturdy and can hold a good amount of weight, making them perfect for towels and decorative items. I love how versatile they are; I can see them working well in the kitchen or living room too. The assembly was straightforward. Overall, these shelves are a fantastic space-saving solution that enhances the aesthetic of any room!

Provide mix of rustic and modern vibes

Absolutely love how these turned out! The black pipes and chunky wooden shelves give off a perfect mix of rustic and modern vibes. Super sturdy too—they hold a good amount of weight, so I’ve been using them for books and a few decor pieces. They’re really versatile—would look great in home office or living room as well. Assembly was easy, nothing too tricky. Overall, a great way to save space and add some style to the room!
