“If a child can’t SAY it a child can’t write it.”
“Writing is formed through thought, and thinking is interpreted through an inner voice in our brain. This voice talks to us and the voice we are hearing in our brain is most usually our own voice. It can only use the language that we own.”
Ros Wilson
