New Good Fun on KidsWrite4Kids.com

Check out the new writing from kids on KidsWrite4Kids.com. Fourth grader Bit has been especially busy lately and has published not only poems, but also a series of stories about her character Katie Kirk. I look forward to reading more entries of her story about the teacher wanted by the FBI!

Check out the essays, too. Even if you don't agree with the writer's point of view, you will have to admit these are strong, strong voices. Colliegirl's comparison/contrast essay is a model of loaded language.

Parents and teachers, keep working with our young writer friends, and show them the way to KidsWrite4Kids.com. Don't be afraid to help them with editing, stressing the importance of clear, consistent, conventionally correct writing. Let's work together to help them become better and better writers.
