	Reaching the Reluctant WriterMany children really do not like to write.  Why?  This workshop will answer that basic question and teach a specific and successful method of separating the complex process of writing into the smallest possible steps, making it possible for even the most reluctant writer to produce short but complete compositions.  He will be proud and motivated to write again.  If you remove the problem of what to write, you will be free to help your child learn how to write, using source texts, key word outlines and “dress-up” checklists.  Results Guaranteed!
 
	Four Deadly Errors of Teaching WritingWe’ve all suffered it at one time or another: Frustration about writing assignments. Either on the receiving end, or perhaps now on the giving end, there can be a few distinctly discouraging aspects to teaching and being taught writing. The tough questions include: What to correct and how to give a grade? How much help is too much? Isn’t the assignment clear enough? Why don’t students find their own errors? Learn and avoid four teaching mistakes that contribute to this frustration: Overcorrecting, Holding Back Help, Unclear Assignments & Over-Expectation.

Furthermore, my desire is to help homeschool workshop leaders and speakers develop relationships with more convention planners and audiences.  May your efforts be for the glory of Christ and the strengthening of His saints.  Disclaimer:
