Category Description for Handwriting Without Tears

This program uses a step-by-step process in teaching the student: demonstration, guided practice, and then independent practice. Students will learn handwriting as well as some practical composition skills. Vital to this program is the teaching of handwriting in a developmentally progressive order. Coupled with this teaching are the unique multisensory tools, the distinct letter formation techniques, and the double-line paper format.

With these methods, children learn to write in a consistent and legible manner. Lessons take 10-15 minutes daily. Each level uses a student book and Teacher Guide. The Teacher Guide provides detailed directions and an explanation of this unique methodology, with a program overview, posture instructions, writing activity ideas, ELL strategies, and more.

Please note, the online interactive resources mentioned in the Teacher Guides are intentionally built for classroom benefit and are not available for homeschoolers. Currently two editions (2022 and 2025) are available, and components are not interchangeable. See each category description for edition distinctives. ~ Ruth

Why did you choose this?

We are diving into cursive this year and have found the desk strips so useful I knew we needed them with our cursive curriculum as well.

I don't have room on my wall for the wall-sized posters.

I thought these would be helpful to add to my student's desk for reference.

Purchased as a reference for our first year of cursive.
