Comprising eleven pupil books and one accompanying teacher's
handbook, Schofield & Sims WriteWell is a complete course
designed to guide children from their first steps in mark-making
towards the development of secure, fluent and comfortable joined
handwriting that can be adapted for a range of purposes.
Handwriting is a complex process that requires the simultaneous use
of cognitive, physical and perceptual skills. As development can
vary greatly from child to child, Schofield & Sims WriteWell
splits learning into manageable modules, offering you the
flexibility to select the appropriate book for your child's needs.
Young writers can then move through the programme at their own pace
as their handwriting skills flourish - a highly personalised
approach that ensures a confident foundation for every child. Each
pupil book contains 15 units, together with a child-friendly
introduction and at least one longer `WriteWell challenge' task
giving pupils the opportunity to use their best handwriting to
`show off' everything they have learnt. Each of these units
provides a clear handwriting focus, explained in the information
panel at the beginning of each spread, followed by focused practise
activities that gradually increase in difficulty, progressing from
simple `Try it' and `Practise it' exercises involving tracing and
copying, to more challenging `Apply it' activities that encourage
children to use the handwriting focus in a realistic context. In
WriteWell 1: Patterning children will learn to draw a range of
shapes and patterns as preparation for learning to form the letters
of the alphabet. A separate accompanying teacher's handbook,
WriteWell Teacher's Handbook (ISBN 9780721716442), mirrors the
structure of the pupil books and contains detailed teaching notes
and photocopiable resources to help support the teaching of
handwriting. A selection of free online resources is also available
from the Schofield & Sims website.
Eight workbooks accompanying the Stage Two traditional stories in
the Storyworlds series. They provide a record of a child's
development, and offer activities to practise reading and writing
skills, such as the consolidation of word recognition, sight
vocabulary and phonological awareness.
This write-in activity book is for children progressing from
tracing the letters to independent writing. It includes fun
pre-writing activities with a focus on pencil control.
