Every Child Has a Story to Tell.

Hall, Nigel; Duffy, Rose

Language Arts, v64 n5 p523-29 Sep 1987

Reports on successfully using letter writing and dialogue journals in a classroom where the children's writing tended to be remarkable similar because they did not insert their personalities into their writing. Their writing grew individualistic, and their vocabularies improved through invented spelling. (SKC)
