Tips to Parents
Writing Pointers for Parents:
In helping your child to learn to write well, remember that your goal is to make writing easier and more enjoyable.
Provide a place. It's important for a child to have a good place to write--a desk or table with a smooth, flat surface and good lighting.
Have the materials. Provide plenty of paper--lined and unlined--and things to write with, including pencils, pens, and crayons.
Allow time. Help your child spend time thinking about a writing project or exercise. Good writers do a great deal of thinking. Your child may dawdle, sharpen a pencil, get papers ready, or look up the spelling of a word. Be patient--your child may be thinking.
Remeber the Readers' Oath and read everyday!
