Better Writing is No Accident

We all remember sitting in boring English classes being lectured about how important writing is. We were bored to death about how to use the comma, quotation marks and semi-colons. We were taught about how a sentence works, how a paragraph works and how paragraphs are arranged together to make a cogent essay. We were all taught the same formulas on how to do this, and yet all writing is different.

So few people write the same since not all of us practice writing in the same way. Not all of us want to write well and not all of us know how to improve our own writing. We all get taught the same rules about how to write and, as students, we are all given the same topics to write about, but every teacher can tell you no two students write the same. So, if we’re all taught the same, what makes us all different? Practice.

Better writing, and therefore better writers, is made not by following rules, but by putting them into practice. It sounds simple enough, but the more a person writes, the better her or she becomes at it. A good writer knows when to break rules of writing and when not to. A good writer knows the point of writing is not following rules, but communicating effectively.

CAHE is a Christian Home School Support Group based in Chandler, Texas and the surrounding areas. April Snider is your group leader. I am here to serve you!

I am excited about the opportunity to enjoy support and fellowship with other Christian home school families in the area. As a home educator I enjoy the opportunity of quality time at home with my kids. However, some things that are just more fun in groups! Prime examples of events best enjoyed as a group include: Play Days , Field Trips, Mom’s Night Out, and Holiday Parties.  So, that�s what we offer here!

CAHE was founded to support and encourage parents who are dedicated to educating and guiding their children to grow in wisdom and character for the Glory of God.  We are a Christian group but we are not a church organization.  Therefore we will not be denominational.  No religious squabbles are allowed.  Since we are a private group that meets in person, not just online, we ask that all new members please post a brief introduction, in the CAHE forum within a week of joining so that we may get to know you
