Children use kidwriting to write before they are able to write conventionally.  Although they understand that adults can’t read all kidwriting, it allows children to feel independent and successful as writers because they can read it.  Kidwriting is everything that children use to write their stories including scribble marks, random letters, and letter/sound correspondence.  Kidwriting is very individualized because children may be doing as little as labeling different parts of their pictures or as much as writing several sentences.  They may be using scribbles or writing complete sentences with readable invented spelling.
