Governments, teachers and parents have a big role in the education of learners in Elementary School. With proper reading and writing materials, a conducive environment, and teachers with adequate educational qualifications, good reading and writing skills will help produce learners who perform well in other subjects (Amutha, 2015). Writing skills have an important role to increase the competence of learners, especially in the field of communication and interact with the environment (Javed, Juan, & Nazli, 2013). However, writing received less attention from teachers and parents of learners. The difficulties of learners in writing seem to be commonplace in the early phases of education. If allowed to continue, this will harm the students themselves. Learners need to read a lot to improve their writing skills (DeMichele and Ozark, 2015).
