I never even knew I was a good writer until God gave me spell check. My younger children suffered through a program called Writing to read in the 80's, which was invented by Apple because they were desperate to get schools to continue using their computers. All of us are good writers, but I'm not still sure there is a relationship between teaching and learning.

When my kids are working on rough drafts, I tell them: don't worry about spelling, punctuation, etc...just get the ideas down on paper. All that other stuff can be fixed later! I'm linking this on my blog. Actually, I do this with my own 9th graders when we are writing.
