Writing - How To! "Journey" booklets by Mark Akins

These three booklets contain the first three chapters of the book, "The Lyric of Language" by Mark Akins, an exceptional guide for parents interested in learning more about their child's journey to becoming a writer. Each of the Magic Lantern Writing Kits feature one of Mark's educational booklets for parents. This is a very important piece to this company's philosophy and belief that, "As children become excited by the power of the written word their hunger to communicate becomes an intrinsic motivation.".

"Charting the Journey - Journaling" by Mark Akins SET OF 3 - "Journey" booklets by Mark Akins
Our Price: $5.95
Our Price: $14.95
"Charting the Journey - Journaling" (included in Journal Writing kits) - “Keeping track of our thoughts and experiences on a regular basis is not only a way to make concrete our reflections, it can be an important vehicle to process emotions and events. Journaling is valuable for the beginning writer who is newly experiencing life’s doings, as well as adults for whom writing and the workings of the world are old hat. For those whose ages fall in between, recording life’s journey can help make sense of the adventure.” Mark Akins Take this opportunity to enjoy all three of Mark's booklets - "Pathways to Literacy - A Journey", "Beginning the Journey - First Steps Towards Written Communication", and "Charting the Journey - Journaling" and really get a deeper understanding of the path to literacy! This set of 3 booklets is the ideal gift for any parent or educator.
