[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The best tool for better writing is a class where the student writes, the teacher marks it up, the student rewrites, and so forth until the work is as good as it can get. Repeat often. You may have an additional challenge trying to do this at home (or perhaps not); in that event, a tutor might help. [/quote] This is 100% accurate. But OP, lots of elementary school kids are "bad" writers. I was always a good writer but I didn't get really good until high school when I got lucky and had an amazing teacher who did just what PP said. It's okay if your child can't write all that well in elementary school. If you see during middle school or especially during freshman year that they aren't getting many writing assignments, that's when you should consider outside help, IMO. [/quote]
