As much as it is a great joy, it is also a tremendous job to do. It is really difficult to catch their attention. With the youngest ones (3-5 years ) I did not have any writing activities. But with kids age 5.5- 8 years old we used to do some writings. Man, it was very difficult to make them try hard. Even tracing letter was so boring for them. I would always say to them: How are you going to <a href="http://essayonlinestore.com/dissertation.html" rel="nofollow">write academic level dissertations</a> when you are in college when you can’t even sit still for 5 minutes. They would always laugh) Surely, they have no clue what dissertation is=) It was a lovely post!

I was struggling to find a way to fit it into our process-oriented school. The small group seems to work and fosters more reflective learning. I would love it if you have any advice for creating and continuing a 'writing group' in preschool.

I was recently writing about creating a more process-oriented environment because I felt that I was getting into a documentation rut, trying to tell stories with definitive "endings". I have a group that is ready to move in a direction where we will think more about letters and letter sounds, and this is a lovely post to read this morning.
