We are starting written narration this year and I will be referring back to this. THANK YOU so much for putting all the time and thought into your website. I visited years ago when you were blogging only, I think, and you have really done amazing work with the site since then.

Maybe you could do a similar post for high school age. Often I am not sure what my expectations should be for that level.

Altering a few principles here and there (long readings and requiring written narration after an abbreviated journey through oral narration, copywork, and studied dictation) can lead to problems. walkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046468024103932112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28260135.post-69832504071084584712013-03-15T21:10:18.663-05:002013-03-15T21:10:18.663-05:00This is very encouraging.

I haven't had the time yet, but have been planning to write a post about the steps I use in teaching writing the CM way, especially as children reach the upper years. It's coming soon...<br />:-)lindafayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10593813942424765333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28260135.post-4729298748578415882013-03-06T05:03:16.166-06:002013-03-06T05:03:16.166-06:00I love your practical tips to guide your child'...I love your practical tips to guide your child's thinking.

In today's academic environment I think it is hard to know how much is too much and how much is too little in the area of composition. To rely solely on written narrations seems so... not enough. Your comment <br /><br />"This skill can be learned in a short amount of time. But it is best learned when children have become proficient writers and only AFTER they have learned to enjoy writing."<br /><br />is right on. I'm curious to know what you recommend for older children who have been narrating from the beginning. At what age do you suggest doing anything more and what do you recommend they do?
