boys and writing

 

I was frustrated yesterday because of a writing assignment I gave Jordan.  He is so resistant to writing, to putting his thoughts in written form.  So I went on a Google search to find some help with this and found this quote:

 

“The I.B.S.C. on boys' writing:

"Their ability to write a well structured, well organised, thoughtful, cogent, coherent essay is frequently poor. Boys have difficulty in responding to questions in examinations appropriately, constructing essays, researching topics in sufficient depth and detail and taking and keeping useful sets of notes. "

So how do I help him get past this?
