My kiddos are just beginning to understand LANGUAGE.
Sytnax…grammar…structure…????
A LOT FOR A 7 year old!
HOW? HOW? HOW? Breathe… We TALK… A LOT!
We share our ideas. We draw. We draw some more. We chart ideas. We sound out words ( the best we can ).
We share. We edit. We write more. And we FIX IT!
Is it perfect? NO!
Is it OK?
YES! Writing is a process. It takes TIME! And practice. And MORE practice!
I want my kiddos to WANT to write. Not for ME…for themselves!
The LOVE of writing is a GIFT! Give them a GIFT!

Sure, they steal your heart away.
