11 Plus Creative Writing Tips: 14 Daily Practices to Include in Your Child’s Creative Writing Routine

7. Acrostic Associations

An acrostic association is when the initial letter of a word is used to make a phrase. They are used to help children (and adults) remember information.

If your child is a reluctant writer, you can help to encourage your child to remember key parts of writing like checking their spelling, punctuation, grammar etc with an acrostic association.

To do this, they should select an object, animal, or word in which they will use to create an acrostic poem out of. For example, the word CATS (cute. adorable. timid. sneaky). The idea of this task is to help your child to remember what to include in their writing.

Don’t keep this info to yourself, go ahead and share it with a friend or another parent who you know will benefit from these tools and practices.
