WRITING WONDERS
(Grades 4-6)
Does your child have a vibrant imagination, but trouble expressing it in writing? Does s/he think writing is a boring, a chore, or something s/he can’t do? This upper grade version of our Writing Wonders course provides students with the opportunity to engage in word games and writing exercises that will stimulate their creativity and boost their academic confidence. Most important, it’ll help your child learn to love writing. And the child that likes to write will write more, and in turn, will improve his writing skills.
