小朋友移英半年，讀緊state school year 3,
閱讀能力唔錯，睇緊harry potter
小朋友學習能力不錯，不過無錢俾佢讀私校
希望自己在家中教小朋友英文作文
想問大家有咩建議同心得
我自己覺得呢個年紀只需要比多d佢有興趣，唔同種類的英書佢睇就可以，去圖書館陪佢一齊睇書。唔洗教唔洗迫，佢發掘了自己對睇書的趣味，佢自然就會追住睇，叫妳買書比佢。浸左幾年後，小朋友的英文作文自然會好。

唔洗教，由佢自由發揮，最緊要佢享受寫作
平日鼓勵佢寫日記同講故事，或者家長管理 Instagram，畀佢發文寫嘢，身邊同學仔家長甚至老師又可以 like 下支持下。
當佢享受寫作，自自然然就會去模仿靚句子用靚字
同埋一定要有「靜止生活」 “The Art of Silence”，即係冇電子產品冇書本冇時鐘冇壓迫冇對話，就好似以下呢幅圖
畀空間發白日夢，一定唔可以催佢唔可以塞嘢填滿佢，靜靜地欣賞時間同埋感受生活。

我大仔細個睇好多書，但就output 出事，次次週記就寫唔出，搞好耐，好多時會喊
直到俾佢去學creative writing (仲响HK時)
NET教嘅，都係what, when, where, who, how 嗰d野
但就隨意發揮，佢慢慢開始識得用佢已學嘅字庫
因為唔係我自己教，無乜心得可言，但就覺得當時老師教得唔錯，e.g. 俾張女巫嘅圖，要作情信，用好多形容詞，亦教識佢作文唔係要係"真"嘅!
不過其他小朋友點教，我唔知，只係覺得呢個方法對"大腦便秘"+字庫強大嘅細路有用
其實學校要佢哋寫好多嘢，多閱讀就可以，我小朋友year 5，我睇佢啲作文已經唔係我哋細個喺香港作嘅嘢
我個人經驗，不過係中文，一直常看書，但
作文都好爛
建立寫野習慣，可以亂寫，如journal, flip book. 可長可短，可亂可錯晒grammar, 最緊要肯寫，同埋家長多鼓勵，不修改。
如果無時間做以上，要result oriented, 就買本寫作練習比佢，有晒guided writing, 慢慢都寫到。
再高年級d, 可以睇下學校高年級同學既文，自己又試下作，比較下。
作文，一定要寫，永遠得吸收又唔寫，無output, 唔識用字，就無意思。
同埋，平日見到佳句要背，唔好睇完就算，咁都可以好快領略到叻既作家點用字同諗野
我地學校作文叻既小朋友都做足以上幾點（平日亂寫，睇書，有佳句會記低），0補習輕鬆拎高分。
只講中文作文，作文最大問題係"無野寫"，“唔知寫啲乜好”，大仔初時平日啲作句練習半個鐘都寫唔到一句，作文寫極都唔夠字數，掌握點寫後，隨手都寫到篇中上文章，變左次之都數夠字數就求其完左篇文…虎頭蛇尾…細女可能係旁邊聽得多又有創作天份，次次都係班中佳作，老師仲鼓勵佢投稿去啲小學生文學雜誌…。可能因為中文寫到，用同一套方法放落英文到? 無特別去督佢地寫英作，只係自自然然就寫到，只係詞匯不足。
- 最重要係從來唔會話佢地錯，除非邏輯上有問題，永遠唔會話佢錯，明明係佢地心內諗既野，點解會錯?一話錯就會開始唔肯寫，講得再多都無用。
- 問"點解"，小朋友成日寫幾隻字就算，覺得無野寫，例如今天不用上學，因為自己寫既，"知道"點解不用上學，覺得讀者都會"知道"點解不用上學，於是就唔寫咁多。因乜不用上學?老帥無屎疴全校放假? 係核突啲，但一講屎尿屁佢地就會作到個理由出黎。再唔係就話呢篇野係俾日本既英國既未來既小朋友睇，寫咁短佢未必明你講乜，點樣可以令佢地明白呀? 咁佢地又會諗下點解釋
- 解釋完就到心情，你覺得點呀，跟住無論乜野我都緊握拳頭好野yeah yeah yeah…，唔係呀? 咁佢地又會諗下應該寫咩心情出黎
- 最後就係加多啲形容詞呀之類
我覺得要搞掂上面先OK先再講閱讀，我細個係閱讀狂，小一開始借書，小四睇晒阿濃何紫，小六金庸咁，但作句寫文係完全寫唔出，次次都係合格邊沿。如果有人一開始教我上面堆野，應該會好好多。

我反而有興趣想知，平時講嘢有無問題？可唔可以有條理表達清晰唔甩甩咳咳?
當時小學學校有作文堂，但特別教作文，唔明點解人地寫得好，
點解自己唔好，因為有睇開書，也有寫日記，其實idea 係有，但
文筆用字結構乜都差。初中都一樣，很爛，常不合格。
直至中五遇到個實習老師點醒自己，所以會考有A。但
Alevel 則無辦法再更進一步。
如果說話小學我諗普通，初中有玩辯論，所以表達
都還好，但平時很少說話，性格內向
多謝提議，
黎緊試下同小朋友寫一日一佳句
我的小小心得:
一定要多閱讀. No input no output. 少閱讀, 即使學晒所有技巧, 都冇材料(word, phrase, idiom, etc.)寫出來.
故事最基本由三部份組成: beginning, middle, end. 熟習結構後, middle可以加多一兩個events, 特別係climax.
想豐富句子可以加入what where when who why how的內容. 多用各種sentence openers (e.g. adverb, -ing verb, double adjectives) and conjunctions, 令句子唔會一式一樣.
要達到A+水平就要運用埋修辭技巧同想像力, 例如明喻, 借喻, 擬人, 聯想, 誇飾, 形聲, 倒敘, 對話等. 少閱讀係好難做到.

仲有好多人唔為意的兩點: planning and time limit.
Planning可以避免離題及組織混亂. 小朋友四歲半開始寫只有幾句的簡單日記時, 我教佢先想好內容要寫什麼, 從而訓練組織同篩選能力. 到六歲就以brainstorm形式寫低keywords作planning. 現在九歲半就加埋思考運用什麼figurative language.
限時都好重要. 考試開頭寫到天花龍鳳, 但唔夠時間冇左最後一part都係唔掂. 而家佢做法係planning (10 mins), writing (35 mins), edit (5 mins).
作文唔止係語文，係一個人嘅思維訓練，除咗閱讀，平日要訓練佢觀察力、想像力、敏銳度，仲有更重要：對時事文化歷史觸角，英國人叫一個領袖做modern Tsar，如果連 Tsar點解都唔知，就好難明及運用到；又或者好多比喻由Greek mythlology嚟都係成個系統
閱讀係要包括文化歷史種種的, 只睇fiction太單一狹窄. 不過以學校一個科目來說, 我上述就係寫作的基本框架, 夠用到上senior school. 甚至好多GCSE考生都未做到.

我就係，睇得都好窄
文化歷史時事對小朋友嚟講吸引力不大，當然有小朋友鍾意但唔多，我小朋友睇書暫時來來去去都係個幾套系列，係我角度睇都認為太單一狹窄，想幫佢擴闊下就say NO。但個幾套書我小朋友會睇完又睇又睇再睇…睇到可以隨口講番個內容，搵埋個頁俾我睇，佢無限次睇都好似咁好睇。
比著我睇個啲書，頂盡兩次就算。
大部份小朋友都係咁, 好正常. 不過可以畀適合小朋友年齡的科普書佢睇. 4-8歲可以睇Usborne Look Inside同Beginners系列, 8歲可以開始See Inside系列, 9歲National Geographic Kids Everything同Who HQ Book系列, 更有趣味性的可以睇Horrible Histories同A Wicked History系列. 如果英文程度好, 又對外國文化有皮毛了解, 都可以開始睇外國新聞.
我仔是小戲迷
4歲開始睇大人電影同電視劇
可能因為咁好識得用文字描繪場景
我同爸爸覺得係佢嘅Talent, 爸爸都算係文人，但佢都做唔到。
但我仔唔鍾意睇書的，雖然爸爸會逼佢乜都睇吓，歷史科學新聞都有係咁意睇過
但係講到睇戲睇電視，我仔就全部都啱，包括我唔睇嘅驚慄片
以下係節錄自佢學校一份assignment，有冇人幫我就唔知啦
One Month ago I was at my friend’s house playing videogames and watching videos from an online website.
We also ate lasagna for lunch, after that we read comics, drew pictures, and played with the dog. It was time for bed, me and my friend brushed our teeth, showered already, and got ready for bed. While we were sleeping I heard a noise, a loud one I woke up and I checked on my friend, He was still sound asleep. I didn’t realize my friend was such a deep sleeper. I bounced up and went outside to check. As I tiptoed through the house the wind started to freeze my veins. As I Dashed slowly I saw brightness illuminating the table. I reached the door, as I reached out to unlock the door I heard some strange Screaming outside of the door. I was scared and dared not to open the door, after a few minutes, I heard nothing; a few more minutes passed; no sound came, only light shined down the floor. After that, I was encouraged enough to open the door and step outside.
You wouldn’t believe what I saw next. It was a portal! I thought portals only existed in movies and comics but NO this one was in front of me. But as I was still questioning my existence I felt some force behind my back and I fell forwards, towards the portal! As I fell forward I screamed
“Help! Help! Help!” But nothing worked, after I fell inside I saw a black figure looming over me staring soullessly at me. “ what do you want?” I asked, but he just stood there and didn’t answer. The portal closed, as I was searching around space I saw something glowing like gold shining sunlight. My body started feeling more intense as I felt gusts of wind pushing me forward. I tried to stop myself but the radiation force from the portal was just too strong and I was pushed away to the portal.
