We are going to use his blog to "write" a story with pictures. For our first story, I took pictures during our Nerf Gun shoot-out. And then together we picked out which pictures and together we came up with a sentence for each picture. My goal is that he can become more independent in his "writing" and start coming up with his own sentences. Nevin does not consider himself a "writer" and will often "clutch" and nearly break into a cold sweat when expected to write. Sooo.... we're working on the perception.
If he seems to really like it, I may get him a cheap digital camera and have him take it with him places ..... so he can also shoot and choose his own pictures.
I also think he will enjoy people reading and commenting on his blog about his stories.
We'll see how it goes. I would love to at least do one picture/one sentence each day. We'll see.
So our first story is written and posted. Click on Nevin's blog link to the right. (since I haven't learned yet how to put a hot link in my post)

What a great idea, Laurie! :-)
I think it's a wonderful idea! So wonderful that I copied you as you know and created one for Britton.
Links in your posts. Very easy, Laurie. Just highlight the words that you want to links to a site. Then, click on the chain link icon in the toolbar of your post. A box will pop-up giving you a place to paste the URL. That's all you do.
Cool!! Thanks, Marilyn. It takes a village to have a blog! :)
