"My son is in the third grade and doing good in school in all his subjects except English arts. Is there any website for kids regarding this subject? He is having trouble writing an essay correctly. Maybe you have some ideas. I've gotten info off the internet and went over it with him but he is still having difficulties. Thank you."
