What is the "Progymnasmata"?
Progym is a set of exercises (14
stages in all) developed in ancient education to move students in a smooth and
logical progression from the basics of telling a story all the way to a thesis
exercise. The purpose of the exercises
is to prepare students to become clear and effective communicators as they become
equipped
to tackle higher level writing tasks in the upper grades of high school and in
college.
In addition, Progym is fun! Students feel empowered to write. Those who are naturally gifted use their creativity, and those who struggle to write grow in their ability to generate ideas.
