Cairney.\u200b<\/p>\n<p>There will always be a level of reciprocity between reading and writing. In fact, the reading of one text will always prime and connect with the memory of other stories, explains Professor Cairney.\u200b<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, writing can be inspired by books (or other media). \u200b<\/p>\n<p>Here are 7 tips you can bond with your child immediately!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>From birth, fill your child\u2019s lives with expository, descriptive (including poetry, journals\/diaries, novels, &amp; plays) and persuasive texts (letters, advertisements etc.) \u200b<\/li>\n<li>Read to your child from birth. And make time to share literature in the elementary years of schooling. \u200b<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t lose your own passion for literature, so that you might \u2018infect\u2019 your child with this same passion. \u200b<\/li>\n<li>Help your child to celebrate the writings of others and acknowledge the inspiration for their writing and ideas.\u200b<\/li>\n<li>Encourage experimentation with writing, in form, at the ideas level and in purpose.\u200b<\/li>\n<li>Try to create an environment where stories are shared, talked about and celebrated.\u200b<\/li>\n<li>Use the school and local libraries to consider books and borrow them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adapted from an article by Professor Trevor H.
