Each kit is a complete printable writing assignment with a real-world role for the student, source materials to investigate, and a finished piece of writing at the end. A new kit ships every month. Each names its own grade band and standards. $18 per kit. One purchase covers every student under your roof, forever.
From the News Desk
$18
A 1995 movie ticket beside a 2026 movie ticket. The student picks one of six "beats," runs the price-versus-wage math, interviews two adults, and files a real feature article.
From the Vault
$18
Three artifacts arrive in the Vault of Restricted Items: an Iron Crown, a Glass Vial, a Stone Codex. The student steals Edgar Allan Poe's color-and-sound trick from "Masque of the Red Death" and writes one short catalog entry per artifact, each in a different mood.
From the File Room
$18
Six real issues, from fast fashion to water privatization. The student picks one they can argue (not just describe), gathers cited sources, writes the strongest counter-argument to their own thesis, and files a 900 to 1500 word argument essay.
From the Bureau
$18
Four moments when Americans hit a crisis and built something better: the CCC, the Golden Gate Bridge, the 19th Amendment, the moon landing. The student picks one, steals language from primary sources, then writes a Blueprint Poem and a Future Archive Story applying the same lesson to a problem we still haven't solved.
