Effective Ways to Get Children Writing - Fun too

If you are a teacher, librarian, home-schooling parent, or simply an adult who wants to learn effective ways to help children enjoy writing, then this book by Marjorie Frank will be fun and useful. In her other book: If You're Trying to Teach Kids How to Wrtie, You've Gotta Have This Book! Marjorie Frank offers both ways to teach and encourage writing as well as the reasons why the methods work. She describes the importance of wanting to write, having something important to write about, then the importance of enabling the student-writer to "publish" or "make public" their writings. This book helps us get past that scary blank empty page. The exercises make wanting to write - so fun and successful, and important - children don't want to stop.
