Heather Woodie has a blog where she coaches homeschooled children how to write. Check it out.

One of the 10 Things That Makes a Great Homeschool Day is the conference we have with our writers.

My job is to meet my writers where they are, give them the tools they need and how to use them, and to help them to meet their goals. What is the goal? To be an effective written communicator. That’s what it’s all about.
