Kooky pens are very popular with kids. They collect them, trade them, and can even join a Kooky club (of which I'm a member). Unfortunately, the manufacturer doesn't encourage kids to actually write with them. Since the kids are motivated to own 'em, wouldn't it be interesting to create a project where they actually write with them?

Sounds great - what about the National Writing Day coming up on Oct. 20th?

 How about a Kooky Writing Day? That's sounds cool-er.

Everyday students should write and should they not be given time to write freely without criticism. I read that this increases student motivation and creates better writers.


Every cloud has a silver lining.
