Unschooling Writing Skills

Writing Skills the Unschooled Way by Alison McKee is a great article about how children can learn to write without formal instruction. Ms. McKee compares it to how children learn to talk and walk, by "babbling", copying, trial and error, and asking for assistance and/or instruction when they are ready for it. Her article describes how her 2 children learned to write, and how she and her husband learned to stay out of their way and help them in the appropriate ways.
