Dear all,

I have a daughter whoz 5 1/2. Shez very intelligent. But her only problem is she doesn't want to write. She was writing slowly when she was in kindergarden. But, now she doesn't want to write only. I feel tired as i tried out various techniques to solve this problem.

Any suggestion pl.

viji replied. Hi kumar, I tried giving my daughter lots of writing practices so her handwriting would improve but when I insisted on it a lot, she tended to avert from it. My teacher(I was taking some teacher training classes) gave me a great idea.
1.Make it a game for her.
2.Tell her to list the number of things she sees when you go out with her.
3.list the number of friends she has.
4.list the number of things she wants for her birthday etc etc etc.
5.Even when you try to correct her. Ask her to write what she understood.

Nowadays my daughter's favourite passtime is to make up stories and write them down. She also makes pictures to illustrate in each page.
Display her work proudly and show it to your friends and family. This will make her feel that she has accomplished something.

Hope this helps. Happy writing.
