[QUOTE="1 Day At a Time, post: 89554, member: 3704"] The mind mapping is a wonderful technique. One of our difficult child's middle school English teachers insisted that her students use this technique for writing and she wanted to see the "worksheet". I thought it was a fabulous idea. I really believe that this process has helped difficult child with writing, but he struggles against using it or any type of process. He just wants to sit down and let it flow. The problem is that writing has become a strong emphasis in our school district. Writing portions have been added to the SAT and the PSAT . Honestly ,though, the grading seems very subjective to me. difficult child hates English, hates Literature and hates writing. He actually can read and write quite well. Still, he hates the subject matter. And, when difficult child doesn't like something - well he just doesn't get the point of giving it a try. Oh boy, 1 1/2 years to go!!! [/QUOTE]
