  1. Hi, we just started WWS with our 11 year old. He is doing great...with non fiction selections. He is understanding and enjoying outline writing. He can easily give me 2-4 sentence summaries on non fiction. However, when it comes to fiction, it’s like he’s reading another language. I’ve done WWE with him through the years, but he has always struggled with fiction summaries. I even break it down for him. I’ll read a few sentences, ask who/what selection was about and ask “what did xyz do?” So I basically prompt him into a single sentence summary. But even when asked to come up with a sentence from the details he JUST gave me, he’s at a loss. I’m really struggling because non fiction is so easy for him. He has an excellent vocabulary, his reading skills are at least on “grade level,” so no issues there. Any advice?
