Writing

Why Children Struggle

• Our brains are naturally wired to speak; they are not naturally wired to read and write.
• Writing, like reading needs to be directly taught.
• Limited or poor instruction.

How do we address these problems?

• Using both the Montessori and Orton Gillingham approach, we help students master the mechanics of writing with studies of grammar, spelling, word study and punctuation.
• We focus on the creative process of writing through the process of prewriting, drafting, editing and publishing.
