Writing Relaunched

The article about digtial writing was interesting.  Children should have the opportunity to write many kinds of pieces.  I did like how the article stressed the importance of knowing how to write and orangize throughts.  Once children can write conventionally, then they can use digital tools and write creatively.  I think their should be a balance in the classroom with conventional forms of writing and writing using 21st century digital tools.

  1. Exactly right. A balance.

    I do think even unconventional writing has a place in the digital world. There is a free app, Puppet Pals, that may help with this idea.
