Do you know a child ages 6 through 16 who fears writing? The secret to gaining confidence, embracing the ease & flow of writing, and learning the basic foundation of writing skills is to rewire their minds so they can master the art of effective writing. As a writer for nearly forty years, the author of three books, and a private tutor working with children of all ages for almost thirty years, I created a virtual writing playground to help students (ages 6 through 16) transform their self-doubts into confidence when it comes to expressing their thoughts in words.

If you want to become a better writer, (This is all you need) Unlearn most of the writing lessons you were taught in school. School taught us: ?? Never to start a sentence with “and” or “because.” ?? To squeeze in all our ideas, no matter the length. ?? To write well to fetch good scores But writing online teaches us: ?? To break the rules when it makes our point stronger. ?? To keep things short and focus on clarity. ?? To connect with the reader, not just impress them. Which point is your favorite?

Ahh the first day of school! There are so many first day writing activities available for teachers to utilize. But do those activities show writers what we want them to know about writing in our classrooms? If we want to show that we value them as writers-what they know, their interests, how they go through the writing process, then the first thing we ask them to do in writing should reflect that. Unfortunately, many of those 1st day writing prompts don't. What writing activities are you seeing in the classrooms in your school? #literacyconsultant #schoolleadership #educationalleadership #schools #studentcentered

A lot of people ask how online lessons work for writing, as it's potentially difficult for the teachers to see what the students are doing. Well, there are a few options: ?? The child holds their work up to the screen and we can look at it, or take a screenshot, to later correct on screen ?? Teens tend to type onto a Google doc which their teacher has access to - this means we can see what they are writing, live, and can give instant feedback ?? Younger children can read their work aloud. We can instantly give positive feedback and suggestions of things to improve, based on what we’ve heard ?? The last option is my favourite: receiving lovely photos of our smiling students holding up their writing, after the lesson has finished. Just like this one! Why not come along to an online writing lesson to see how it can work for your child? #creativewritingclass #privatetuition #creativewritingforkids #smallgrouplessons
