Start at Home
Parents can create a conducive writing environment at home to encourage their children’s creativity and growth to improve writing skills. Set aside designated writing time, provide writing materials, and create a quiet space free from distractions. Offer encouragement, praise their efforts, and ask about their progress. By showing interest and valuing their children’s writing, parents foster a positive attitude towards writing outside of our EIW homeschool writing curriculum.
Review and Discuss Assignments
As part of our homeschool writing curriculum and other online writing programs, parents can review their children’s assignments, offering constructive feedback and suggestions for improvement. Discussing their work helps children better understand their strengths and areas for growth. Parents can also help them develop stronger arguments by bringing up examples from literature or real-life experiences.
