It is I Love to Write Day . This day was started by an American author called John Riddle, who believes that writing is a perfect way for individuals to express themselves creatively! You should spend some time writing today. Don't overthink what to write; just write what you feel like. If you have a class today is a good excuse to have fun writing. A lot of children (and adults) do not like writing and they find it a chore. Perhaps this is because it wasn't fun or they couldn't choose for themselves what kind of writing to do. When I first started teaching the students in my class had a journal and they wrote something in it every day for ten minutes. Sometimes they wrote lists, story ideas, messages to themselves, nothing especially formal, but it was a routine they certainly embraced.
Put out some lined paper, paper made into books, envelopes, coloured paper, pencils, and some picture books that might inspire students to have a go.
