[quote=Anonymous]My dd actually liked it when I would give her a writing prompt that required her to do a little research, reach a conclusion, and then write an essay. She asks me to do this over summer break. We’d sit down and talk about how to make the meaning of a particular sentence more clear to the reader or how to say something more concisely. We’d go over the punctuation. Also, help your child find books that are really engaging for him/her. As long as the book is age appropriate, don’t place any limitations on the subject matter. Try to expose dc to different literary genres. Talk about what makes him/her like a particular author. Invite dc to write a couple original paragraphs in the style of dc’s favorite author.[/quote]
