I am a first year writing/grammar teacher. Teaching
fourteen years at the elementary level, 7th and 8th Graders
have left me feeling quite overwhelmed. They have either
lost their "zest" for writing,or have never had an
interest. Testing is in February for the 8th Graders. I
am struggling daily to keep it interesting, and encouraging
them to rise to the challenge. Discouragement has set in,
and I'm feeling overwhelmed. Any words of encouragement or
direction? In short...HELP!!!!!!!
