More Blog Tips
Jess,
This is just my personal opinion, but I think that some people don't give kids enough credit. If a kid writes poorly, then adults complain about the bad writing. ("Elizabeth, can't you write better than that?") They say that the kid didn't work hard enough. But if a kid does work hard and writes well, they think the kid had too much help from someone else. ("Elizabeth, did you or your brother write that?") Sometimes a kid just can't win!
My Mom got our main homeschool writing course from The Institute for Excellence in Writing (IEW). Mr. Pudewa told us that even Benjamin Franklin learned to write by copying the writing styles of others. He also told us how painters do the same thing. I enjoy Mr. Pudewa's courses. He has excellent methods for writing, and some funny jokes and stories. Mr. Pudewa's writing checklist is fantastic!
Check out Mr.Pudewa's IEW website, if you want to improve your writing. I highly recommend it. We have his Student Intensive Writing Workshops on DVD. BEWARE though! Mr. Pudewa will help you to improve your writing so much that you'll get tired of hearing, "Jess, did you really write that?" : )
