Send us a textHello homeschoolers!Welcome back to Homeschool is a Work of Heart. Have you ever met one of your heroes? I did back in 2015 when I met Andrew Pudewa, founder of the Institute for Excellence in Writing. He was the first person I ever heard connect how the brain works with how we write, and that changed everything for me as a teacher. I’ll always remember how kind, humble, and downright brilliant he was. This week, I’m unpacking one of his most powerful talks, The Four Deadly Errors of Teaching Writing. It’s a must-listen for any parent who has struggled to make writing less painful and more purposeful. But you know me, I’ll put a positive spin on it. Instead of four deadly errors, we’ll focus on four powerful do’s: encourage, guide, structure, and recognize. Let’s dive in. Write On!Mentioned in this Episode🔗 Andrew Pudewa's Full Recording of Four Deadly Errors of Teaching Writing🔗 Current Programs and Offerings at Write On! Webb
