Check out this essay by Andrew Pudewa on teaching writing. I've been perusing his site, which I find very interesting, and was struck by this common-sense view of how to encourage children to develop good writing skills. I'm especially pleased that he managed to drag in most of my favorite writers of educational philosophy: Dorothy Sayers, Maria Montessori, Glenn Doman, and Arthur Robinson by name—and John Holt is well represented, though anonymously.

Now if only this short and clear writing translated to taking less time. Then it wouldn't take me all Sunday afternoon to update my blog!
