At Home-
- Children love to keep a journal or a diary. Encourage them to write down what they did each day, secrets, favorite hobbies etc. If they have a special notebook and pen reserved just for journaling they might just get excited to write!
- Using art is a great way to motivate writing. Let your child use sidewalk chalk on a nice day. Have them draw a picture or create something and have them describe it in a story, poem or letter to a friend.
- Have your child write the grocery list, to do list or chore list
At School-
- Writing on different surfaces with different utensils. (i.e. whiteboards, markers, construction paper, shaving cream on desks)
- Setting aside a time to write every day, it will soon become routine
- Let students share what they write
- Use technology to motivate writing
