Another writing victory

I bought a book called "The Write Stuff Adventure" by Dean Rea. It is not expensive and we did the second lesson yesterday. The goal was to teach kids how to write rough drafts. You do so with a pencil and NO eraser. Any mistakes are just lined through and then you move on. The assignment was to write about your activities the day before. Sam loved it because nothing mattered except getting your thoughts on paper and being able to read it himself later. I think we may do this for a while without finishing--just a bunch of rough drafts. Hey, it is getting his thoughts on paper--something he has hated to do for years.

what a delight to see the joy of doing school awaking even more!!
