The new National Curriculum emphasises the importance of
composition but also 'transcription' i.e. spelling and 'fluent,
legible and, eventually, speedy handwriting.' Our exciting new
'Let's Do Handwriting' titles provide all the help that children
need to write fluently and legibly. Through guided practice in
letter structure and the correct formation of joins, the children
are encouraged to develop a clear, attractive style to use with
fluency and speed in their everyday writing. The extensive
handwritten practice of a wide range of words also helps to broaden
vocabulary and spelling skills. As with every title in the Andrew
Brodie Basics range, parents can ensure that their children's
efforts are well rewarded. Each book features regular progress
checks as well as a wide variety of attractive reward stickers. To
help the children along, Marjorie the Meercat gives lots of useful
tips!

Treasure House Handwriting is a whole-school programme designed to
support children in developing a clear and fluent style of writing.
Using precursive and cursive handwriting styles, the programme
progresses from introducing the movements and patterns needed to
form letters, through to the development of a personal style.
Through the workbook, children explore different contexts in which
a well-formed handwriting style plays an important part. They are
asked to use both print and joined styles to transform material
from a range of curricula and everyday situations for presentation
to others. By this stage, children will be developing at least
three handwriting styles: 1. A neat, 'best form 2. A speedier and
sometimes less neat form 3. A clear, well-formed print style

learners to our fun print and cursive monsters. These friendly
monsters will support children every step of the way as they start

formation of every letter of the alphabet. This will assist parents
and teachers with teaching handwriting while also keeping children
interested. This exciting new series is CAPS-aligned. It provides
an excellent opportunity for children to build a strong foundation
in developing directionality, drawing, tracing, pattern creation,
spacing familiarity and letter formation while also introducing
them to cursive writing. The engaging activities provide plenty of
practice in order to develop and strengthen fine and gross motor
skills as well as hand-eye coordination. Our brand new handwriting
font has been researched and developed by a team of local teacher s
and education experts. The unique font aims to facilitate the
process of teaching handwriting more easily. It is easy to use and
will form the foundation for future writing activities.

over as they begin to practise joining letters, guidelines
indicating the height of small letters and the vertical stroke and
real-life copying tasks, including writing instructions, a letter
and a postcard.

rows for practising the full letter strokes. Size of 48 copymasters
is A4/8.3"x11.7".
This is a new edition of the ever-popular songs that provide a
highly effective way of learning how to form all 26 a-z letter
shapes, by associating them with body parts. The rhyming songs use

letter formation exercises in Book 1. The following worksheets

which handwriting requires. The antics of Pencil Pat and his gang
keep up the level of enjoyment and satisfaction as the child works
through these exercises.
