Although a journal can be used to recount daily activities and allow one to pour out one\u2019s thoughts and feelings about the day\u2019s happenings, journaling is not the same as keeping a diary. It\u2019s far more versatile and extends beyond keeping a record of daily activities as it can be incorporated into different areas of learning, such as maths, science, art, music or even sports.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; module_id=&#8221;Versatility-of-Journaling&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Versatility of Journaling&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; width=&#8221;95%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1200px&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|false&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#86bce6&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1>Versatility of Journaling<\/h1>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/fromapixel.com\/lcentralold\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/LCentral-English-Enrichment-Tuition-Singapore-Blog-Benefits-Of-Journaling-Versatility.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;LCentral English Enrichment Tuition Singapore Blog Benefits Of Journaling Versatility&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom-indent\">If your child is having difficulty solving problem sums or working out a science question, get them to write down the questions and formulae. They can experiment with possible solutions or methods and even draw diagrams to explain their thought processes. With art, for example, your child can create preliminary sketches of their characters or detail how they would incorporate ideas from other artists to create their own artwork. The journal can even serve as a portfolio or sketchbook of sorts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom-indent\">At this point, it doesn\u2019t sound as if much writing is involved. However, it\u2019s a stepping stone to easing your child into the writing process. <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; module_id=&#8221;Journaling-as-a-Means-of-Expression&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Journaling as a Means of Expression&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; width=&#8221;95%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1200px&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|false&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#86bce6&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1>Journaling as a Means of Expression<\/h1>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/fromapixel.com\/lcentralold\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/LCentral-English-Enrichment-Tuition-Singapore-Blog-Benefits-Of-Journaling-as-a-Means-of-Expression.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;LCentral English Enrichment Tuition Singapore Blog Benefits Of Journaling as a Means of Expression&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;35px||||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom-indent\"> Children who are more inhibited will find that keeping a journal is most useful for chronicling their thoughts or expressing their emotions. The process can be cathartic as it helps them internalise what could be troubling them and helps them work out solutions to these problems.<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom-indent\"> For younger children, it could be as simple as penning down how they feel about a particular incident. If they are open to you reading their entry, you could talk to your child about how they could resolve the issue or cope with similar incidents in future. Older children may not be as forthcoming and may prefer that their privacy be respected. Journaling can thus allow them to vent, analyse how they feel and even gain insights into their own or other people\u2019s motivations for acting the way they do. <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; module_id=&#8221;Getting-Your-Child-Started&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||0px||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; admin_label=&#8221;Getting Your Child Started&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||0px||false|false&#8221; width=&#8221;95%&#8221; max_width=&#8221;1200px&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|10px||10px|false|false&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#86bce6&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h1>Getting Your Child Started<\/h1>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.9.1&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;20px||||false|false&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<p>Below are some tips on how you can help interest your child in journaling:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Start by choosing a journal which would appeal to your child. Make it special. Emboss their name on the cover, give stickers or other forms of embellishment to help your child personalise their journal.<\/li>\n<li>Provide them with writing prompts. Be creative &#8211; it could range from a line extracted from a well-known story or movie, a newspaper headline or a word that can appear anywhere (such as from a poster or food wrapper).<\/li>\n<li>They can also write from the perspective of an animal or an inanimate object.<\/li>\n<li>Model the journaling process and share what you have written with your child. It could be a short entry about your day at work, a holiday experience or a reflection on the simple pleasures in life.<\/li>\n<li>When your kids are older, they can graduate to creating a blog of their own. A blog is basically a journal in an online form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/fromapixel.com\/lcentralold\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/LCentral-English-Enrichment-Tuition-Singapore-Blog-Benefits-Of-Journaling-Getting-Your-Child-Started.png&#8221; title_text=&#8221;LCentral English Enrichment Tuition Singapore Blog Benefits Of Journaling Getting Your Child Started&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;25px||||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.7.7&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px||false|false&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;30px||||false|false&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"custom-indent\">The nub is not to make journaling a chore.
