Helping Your Child Become a Successful Writer - Bruce Johnson - Bog

You are your child's first teacher, and your challenge is to help your child become a successful writer. Does this mean you need to present daily lessons? No. This merely means you need to take an active part in helping your child with the writing process and related activities. "Helping Your Child Become a Successful Writer: A Guide for Parents" is full of suggestions and offerings on how to do just that, as well as how to have fun while doing that. Presentation starts with the definition of writing, and how the question is not "what is writing?" but "what is good writing?" It continues with the writing process, prewriting help, drafting help, revising help, proofreading help, and publishing help. Also included are helpful hints for getting involved in the school education process as well as activities for writing around the home, games to play, and summer activities. You may be surprised at how much a simple daily effort will pay off. Someday your child will start writing to you, and better yet, someday your child will pass along these activities to your grandchildren. That will be doubly rewarding and fun to watch.
