Parents help your kids learn to write,
By laurie Friedman (Miami, FL United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Real-Life Writing Activities Based on Favorite Picture Books: Super-Fun Activities and Reproducibles that Use Picture Books as Models to Help Kids Practice 11 Kinds of Real-Life Writing (Paperback)
Gloria Rothstein's book, "Writing Activities Based on Favorite Picture Books", is great for parents who want to help their kids become better writers. Writing activites are based on the texts of picture books and are so kid-friendly. My daughter and I did several of them together and had a great time. This book provides an accessible way for kids to become better writers in a fun and relaxed manner. I think it is important that kids become good readers AND good writers and I think this book helps develop both skills. Plus, it makes writing fun for kids and that's a real accomplishment! I loved this book and highly recommend it for parents everywhere.
