About this listen

 Do you ever wonder if the writing assignments your child receives are actually supporting their growth—or just making writing feel like a chore? In this episode, we explore why it’s not only okay but essential to judge and adapt writing assignments for your kids. We talk about how rigid or uninspiring tasks can stifle self-expression, why playful and flexible approaches unlock learning, and how you can confidently take charge of your child’s writing journey. We also share practical tips for adapting assignments and supporting your child’s natural development as a writer.Resources:Jane Austen “crosswriting” letters: https://www.themorgan.org/collection/literary-and-historical-manuscripts/282280Watch: Zoom - Ubbi DubbiFall class registration opens on July 21!Purchase Julie’s new book, Help!
