This summer, since I have two prolific writers, and one who thinks she is- we are initiating journal writing time after our evening quiet reading time. Not only will it keep the writing skills going during school break, give them something to look back on, create a system for setting and accounting for goals, etc... but it gives Mommy 15-30 mins more quiet! ;-)
We began with just cheapy black & white memo/journal notebooks & the kids put a collage of magazine cut-outs & stickers on the covers. It will be nice for them to look back and see what they were interested in.
Everyone, even mom, did a journal entry tonight- the first Sunday of the first week out of school- to kick things off.
Working hard on her journal:
