She is eight years old. She totally nails it! Be ok with what you write. Don\u2019t criticize yourself and don\u2019t censor your own writing. With freewriting we give ourselves the permission to write whatever comes to our mind, and we trust that something will come.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first writing prompt is just to start experiencing the feeling of getting into the writing flow. I ask the kids to imagine that on the way to their parents work today they found a magic wand.

He reads about a man who helps him out, and as thank you the boy doubles the magic wand and gives one of them to a man.

And then I understand. The kids at my table are all from Ukraine. The English of the two older boys, 14 and 15, is pretty good. But the younger girl, the sister of one of the boys, was probably whispering because she didn\u2019t understand all I said, all the words I used. I feel bad. I had been so amazed by the command of English of all these kids that it hadn\u2019t occurred to me that one of them was struggling.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her mom comes up to me, she had been at the back of the room the entire time: \u201cThank you so much, Stefanie.
