Category Description for Learn Handwriting!
Perfectly perforated pages to practice your penmanship with a pencil! Ok, that's all I have for P's, but your student can practice lots of P's and other letters/words/sentences on the large, colorful pages in this book. The print book uses a traditional style (ball and stick letters.) In the beginning, each letter is shown in both upper and lower case with arrows to guide their strokes. There are some shaded letters to trace and then 4 lines for practice. Dotted half lines are in red with top/bottom lines in blue for the print book and all in gray for the cursive (half inch in both books.) Once you work through a page per letter, you move to a page of 5 words - one page with all A words (Adam/all/ant/ate/as), then a page of all B words (bat/Bert/big/blue/by), etc. The next pages practice a sentence per page, each sentence using words that start with a common letter. You practice the sentence 8 times after tracing a light version of the words. Ants are awake. Bees buzz by. Cute cubs climb, etc. There is a page of all numbers, days of the week, months, and some fun random animal illustrations in the back without the words shown. Your student writes in the words themselves. This is a very user friendly, independent, do a page a day kind of book. Use them as an introduction or for some remediation. The cursive book follows much the same format with arrows to guide the strokes. The style is traditional with a slight slant (the Q looks like a circle with a tail, and the G looks like the General Mills logo.) First you do the individual letters, then words, then sentences, numbers, days and months. Some of the words and sentences are a bit longer than in the print book, such as: cow/coat/Canada/camp/crab and Elephants enjoy each evening. In the back, kids have to rewrite a printed sentence in cursive, such as Birds fly south because it is too far to walk. And Oysters call their friends on shell phones. It's cute, eh? 96pp, reproducible, from Peter Pauper Press. ~Sara
