plmzk Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 My sister Sofiya. Sofiya is my sister. She was really scared to walk. But on January first she realized that it is fun to walk. So now she is walking!! Started the year with: Two flamingos Those flamingos went to the river to eat some shrimp. But the shrimps were not there. But then they had to go to the ocean. This is her time of the day to just write about whatever she wants. I do not correct these, I want it to be her "free" writing time. I use this mostly to improve her creative thinking rather than writing. She does ask how to spell different words though. I see a lot of areas for improvement still, but I do see some progress between the two entries. I haven't used any writing program with her yet and I'm kinda on the fence about it as language arts are her strong point. What do you ladies think? Should I go with a writing curriculum to help her improve? Is she doing fine? If I should use something, what would you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reign Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I think it is great independent work and will be great to look back on as she grows. My 7 year old also does a journal. We use WWE as a writing program. I think that journaling works on different skills then WWE does. We also do copy work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
