Really, the only kind of writing I do outside of school is text my friends. It’s been a pretty long time since i’ve written a story or something outside of school. The reason for that is because I don’t like to write without a specific subject. To be honest, I’m ok with writing, as long as it has some sort of a subject. I absolutely despise having to write some random story that doesn’t have any control, it’s just not fun. If I have to write a biography on some famous person in history, that's the kind of thing I would enjoy.

There's nothing wrong with letting them do free writing, but if some of the kids in the class hate that then they shouldn’t be forced to do it, instead they could have some kind of subject the teacher could assign them, or pick from a list. I guess I do kind of like to write, short stories are pretty fun, like 1-3 pages. Long stories definitely aren't that fun unless it’s something you have a lot to write
