HEM Takes a Closer Look:Learning to Write

A word is not a crystal, transparent and unchanged; it is the skin of a living thought, and may vary greatly in color and content according to the circumstances and the time in which it is used. ~Oliver Wendell Holmes

Many new homeschool parents often ask when their child  will learn to write?   Just like any other skill, there is no set time table and the answer is largely dependent upon each child.   In the same way that they learn to read, walk and talk, they will write when they are ready.
