We all know that children are full of thoughts and ideas. They just don’t know how to express what they’re thinking in writing. When teaching students about writing, I explain to them that writing is like telling a story on paper. I begin by showing them what their thoughts look like. For example, I have them share an idea while I write it on the chart. In the beginning I emphasize the content of the writing rather than grammatical correctness.
These skills will be taught through various activities and techniques.  Students will learn by hands-on writing activities, interactive activities, through videos, discussion, and lots of practice.  Each session will be interactive with students completing activities for skill mastery.
The activities include:
Drawing pictures using basic shapes and lines
Labeling pictures using best-guess spelling
Writing a complete sentence with a subject and predicate
Proper use of capitals, spaces between words, and punctuation
How to write using a sentence stem
Learn to write telling sentences (declarative)
How to write asking sentences (question)
Teach how to write exclamatory sentences
Writing lists
Listing 3 or more things in a sentence using commas
Respond to questions in writing
Writing stronger sentences using adjectives, adverbs, who, what, where, when, or how
Write more than one sentence on a topic

This class is best suited for students who already know how to read basic words and have begun reading sentences and writing many words.  
 I aim to build love for writing in the young ones, so don’t be surprised when you see a written note from your young one. 😊

Week1:
Read it, write it and fix it:
•	We learn to write correct sentence by paying attention to, beginning the sentence in capital letter, finger spacing, punctuation and word order.
•	We learn to identify the subject and predicate in the sentence. We will also learn the difference between verb and predicate.
•	We learn to place the subject and predicate in a sentence.
•	We will identify complete vs incomplete sentences.

Week2:
We learn what are ADJECTIVES and ADVERBS, how are they different from each other and how they help us in building sentences.
Once my students have mastered writing simple sentences, I encourage them to add a little sparkle to their work. For example, if a student writes “I like dogs,” have them explain what types of dogs they like. I continue by guiding them through the creation of a new sentence.  For example: “I like brown dogs with curly hair.”  The children thus learn to stretch a sentence.

Week3:
We learn to write the sentence in the correct TENSE FORM.
•	We learn to write sentences in simple present tense, simple past tense and simple future tense.
•	We learn to change a sentence from simple present to past tense. The change in verb is explained. For example, see becomes saw and not seed or sawed.

Week4:
We learn to build questions using the 5 W (When, Where, What, Why and Which).
This activity not only helps a child to build questions but will also help them frame sentences to write on any topic. For eg: we practice to write about my favorite toy. The child will start writing by answering all the questions with 5Ws
•	What is my favorite toy?
•	Where do I keep my favorite toy?
•	When do I play with my toy?
•	What is the name of my toy?
•	Why is it my favorite toy?

Week5:
I provide the children with various interesting writing prompts. They write best when they are writing about something that interest them.
Through activities such as “WRITE-don’t show” the children are encouraged to write about their favorite toy, food etc and then the rest of the class guesses what is the thing.
