Writing

Chloe has never had a "sit down and learn your letters" lesson. 
She doesn't know the alphabet.  At all.
Until about a month ago she still had to ask me how to spell and make the letters in her name. 

So what's this?

Unschooling at work.

Writing has a purpose, and when you need to use it, you figure out how to do it.

You master it because you see how useful it is and want to be good at it.

Chloe now writes her name on everything she draws, and is wanting to spell others' names too.

Slow progress?  Maybe.  But who are we comparing to?  Nobody :-)
