[quote=Anonymous]I have a fourth grader who has always been a strong student who worked hard at school, but I am concerned because she writes very poorly and hasn't improved much over the past couple of years. She reads voraciously and most of what she reads is written well, but it doesn't seem to help her writing at all. Her school used a balance literacy approach and heavily relied on computers for ELA and I think it just didn't work for her. What are some ways that I can help her with spelling, syntax, and grammar? Any recommendations for resources such as workbooks that work well? We can't afford tutoring right now and I don't have a teaching background myself, so I'm hoping to find a structured approach that I can follow to help her improve.[/quote]
