Writing is tricky. In some ways, writing is rocket science. Many things must go ‘right’ for proficient writing to occur. Some of these things include: handwriting, spelling, grammar/usage, idea generation, organization, etc.

Writing can be especially tricky for students who, for whatever reason, struggle with sentence construction. Sentence construction is the skill of composing words into a common structure (e.g., simple, compound, complex) understandable by readers.
