The Problem:

In this computer age, students have traded the pen for the mouse! Teachers often ask their students to answer multiple-choice questions on the computer screen rather than having them compose their thoughts and write answers in sentences and paragraphs.

The Solution:

Students need to practice writing every day. They should spend at least 15 minutes a day in creative writing. Yet, how often have you heard them say, “What can I write about?” This book makes that problem evaporate! It provides a complete variety of writing projects that challenges them to excel as they practice writing every day!
