develop a love for keeping a journal

Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2014

Verified Purchase

As a former teacher who couldn't have survived without this book, now I wanted to use it again with my grandchildren as we work on writing in this era of texting shorthand, brief notes & emails. Hopefully they will, minimally, develop a love for keeping a journal! :)

If I were Trying to Teach Me How to Write...

Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

I love this book and have used its ideas with many years worth of high school English classes. Marjorie gets that all students have something to say and can be coaxed to say it well. Her writing prompts and philosophy promote enjoyable and fruitful learning for all writers, myself included.

Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2013

Verified Purchase

The author has done a nice job explaining the writing process and the purpose of it. It is filled with creative ways to motivate kids to want to write, evaluate their own writing and for sharing and displaying their finished pieces. Worthy investment and definitely one that won't just sit on the shelf and collect dust.

the title speaks for itself

Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2010

Verified Purchase

Having taught elementary and middle school, I am continually delighted to find new and useful ideas in this book. I have bought several copies as gifts for other teachers. This is the one book in my professional library that is always checked out by my peers. Its worth the investment!

Substandard Printing Detracts from the Material Presented

Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2016

Verified Purchase

Useful material but the printing is substandard, which detracts from the importance and usefulness of the ideas. The hard-to-read pages have a low resolution as if they were mimeographed. Would be easier on the eyes to read if it were the money were paid for the pages to be reformatted and reprinted with crisp letters.

I had the original edition and it gave me the background I needed as a new teacher. I recommend this book who are weak in their own writing skills.

Disappointing after its rave review. Much of what is in it can be found elsewhere, so it's really not worth buying.

I found a wonderful series in Taiwan from a British writer

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 1, 2016

Awful! Thank goodness I bought it second hand. It's not at all inspiring. I found a wonderful series in Taiwan from a British writer. Sadly now out of print but wonderful for the children I teach.
