I think this is a great
I think this is a great quote.
"However, drawing their thoughts is great, but it does not build solid writing skills, spelling, and grammar; all of which is essential for success in society and is the most acceptable form of communication."
I think the idea in writing is to give them the tools they need to communicate as effectively as possible. I think your quote relates directly to the idea of context specific and context association that we have been talking about. It is our job to try to educate them on the appropriate time to do such types of expressive writing and when it is appropriate to be more formal. The question I believe we have all been working on is "when should we be doing it one way or another?" I say "doing it" to be intentionally vague to illustrate that this could be said for anything and everything we ever do. Great post!
