WRITING TIPS FOR KIDS

1)    My first writing tip is find characters you actually like for your story.  Ask yourself, “If they were real people would I like to meet them or be friends with them?” Maybe not so much for the antagonist (bad guy) but definitely for the main characters. This is especially important for a longer book because you will be spending a lot of time having conversations with them inside your head. Make sure your main character isn’t perfect. Give them some interesting flaws. Marina from Paper Magic has to use a wheelchair and she is very anxious. If she didn’t have flaws like this the story would be boring.

Bullying of special needs students
Bullying is aggressive behavior that targets individuals, causing harm and distress. When children with special needs experience bullying, it can be especially heartbreaking. It also presents unique challenges for parents and teachers of children who often struggle to communicate. Understanding the serious impact of bullying and recognizing warning signs is crucial. By working together, parents, caregivers, and educators can prevent bullying and create a safe, inclusive environment where every child can thrive.

Bullying transcends childish acts such as teasing, rough housing or joking around. It can be a dangerous activity with devastating physical and psychological effects. It’s a prominent risk factor for substance abuse and addiction, but the person being bullied isn’t the only one at risk.
