Why write “for fun”?
It’s time to dispel one of the greatest myths in education: that learning needs to feel bad to work.
We don’t adhere to the old adage of “no pain, no gain.”
You’d be surprised how much kids learn when they PLAY!
Quality writing requires that loose, joyful element:
- Structure and play.
- Practice and experimentation.
- Mechanics and expression.
In Write for Fun we balance writing practice with writing adventures that kids love. To help students discover the joy and power of their writing voices, the feedback from the instructor focuses on encouraging the content and impact on the reader rather than mechanical accuracy (spelling, punctuation, grammar).
