Linked HERE is an article from Dr. Dave Walsh's website about raising writers. Writing is a difficult concept to gain confidence around. This article is a wonderful resource. As both a parent and a teacher, I really enjoy Dr. Walsh's writing. A child psychologist from the University of Minnesota, Dr. Walsh focuses on child development and enhancing executive functioning (self-discipline, self-regulation) in children. I have a number of his books and am happy to lend out if interested. The article linked above is a part of a regular newsletter I receive that discusses various topics surround whole-brain child development. I highly recommend subscribing to it. His website also has links to many other resources and various products. Some of my favorite books of his include: Smarter Parenting, Smarter Kids and No: Why Kids - of all ages - Need to Hear It and Ways Parents Can Say It. A downloadable lecture to "No" is also available. Check out Amazon for a full list of his wonderful books and resources. He also specializes in preteen and teen development and technology use with children.
