Summer Writing Tips

Here are a few tips to make writing more exciting this month:

Let your kids write with a pen. Our favorites are erasable gel pens! They don’t smudge and smear like the erasable pens from my middle school years. Emma likes to change colors as she writes each new paragraph, and I like that there are no scribbled out mistakes.

Print out all of the prompts at the beginning of the month, and assemble them into a writing notebook. Let your child choose a writing prompts each day. This gives them more control over their assignment and encourages them to write about what sparks their interest each day.

Don’t edit and/or proofread each writing assignment. Just let them write. At the end of the week (or end of the month), have them pick a piece to edit and publish. You can go through the whole editing, revising, rewriting process at this time. This eliminates the stress that comes with producing a perfect piece each time.
