Exciting Day
I work with a student who has been struggling with writing. He has a hard time thinking of ideas and is not able to write a complete sentence or use appropriate punctuation. Yesterday, we had a break through! I gave him a subject to write about and he had to write a complete sentence about that subject. Not only did he write a sentence but it made sense and he used periods at the end. I was so excited!

Great to hear about successes :). Do you think the task was easier for him to process when you provided the subject for him?
ReplyDeleteYAY! We can rejoice in your students' success. Was the topic a subject he is passionate about or interested in? It would be easier to write perhaps if it was.
ReplyDeleteIt's so fun when the light bulb comes on. :)
