The Kids' Guide to Getting Your Words on Paper Bewertungen

Lots of practical tips to help kids have better writing skills. When I was eight, I was the last student in my class to have good handwriting. I would have loved all the pencil grips that you showed in your book. Another tip that I completely agree with is heaving a soft pencil. -- Temple Grandin, Author Thinking in Pictures, The Autistic Brain
Know any kids struggling with writing? Lauren Brukner's empathic writing style is straight-forward, empowering and kid-friendly. Using her do-able strategies, students feel prepared to overcome resistance or anxiety, organize ideas and details, and tackle grade-level written assignments. Read this book with your students. You'll learn something, too!! -- Beverly H. Moskowitz, DOT MS OTR/L FAOTA
The real value of the book is its uncomplicatedness and relevance to the world, in which children hold tablets as often as pencils. No child struggling with writing should be considered at risk of poor achievement before they have tried Lauren's tricks of the Occupational Therapy trade. The visual-motor coordination strategies feel natural and unpretentious, and that's why they work. -- Lidia Stanton - dyslexia specialist and psychologist
