Scholars
On the Write Track

Scholars are writers who have also become readers. As such, they are highly motivated to make their writing resemble the kind of writing they are used to reading. Enter the rules of writing: size and spacing of letters, orientation on a line, capitalization, punctuation, spelling, grammar, sentence structure. Bring them on. Young Scholars are ready to learn the right ways to write.

And they are ready to write a lot, in little and big ways, all day long. So prepare yourself (and stock up on paper) because once kids crack the writing code, they tend to be unstoppable.
