[quote=Anonymous]Not sure if this fits here but I was just thinking about how to help my son. 8 th grader, great reader but terrible writer. We have a great relationship but he does not want me to teach or coach him. Should I look for a writing tutor, a writing program on-line? He hates to write and I am worried about him because writing is a life skill. So far, his grades are good but it is because we sit with him, edit, make him do webs, etc. My dh bith tell him that writing is a skill, craft and you have to work at it. He will always do the least amount possible, make no connections between ideas, use elementary language ( he has a great vocabulary.) I have been thinking about this all semester so timely post.[/quote]
