Handwriting Today is a comprehensive cursive handwriting programme.
It removes the need for teaching a pre cursive letter formation, as
it introduces individual letters at Book A level, that have the
identical shape and form of those used at later stages when joining
letters and creating words. It starts with a cursive font and
builds to joins and words quickly. It uses a flowing cursive font
that combines the best of traditional and contemporary fonts to
create an easy to write and easy on the eye writing style. Pupils
find this an easy beginning. It focuses on the flow of letters and
text, and avoids a start-stop writing style, which in turn leads to
illegible writing in later years a smooth flowing style is the
result of using Handwriting Today. It makes it easy for young
children to build their skills, as in the early stages all lower
case letters share the same starting point. Handwriting Today is
available from Book A to Book D: Book A: letters are introduced in
Book A, where young writers practice word shapes and formations
before moving to joins in the following year; Book B: looks at
creating joins and practicing various letter combinations leading
to the writing of words; Book C: builds on joins, combining
multiple joins into words, groups of words and sentences; and, Book
D: provides opportunities for children to practice their writing in
the context of every day usage and cross-curricular themes,
providing for letter and join revision as appropriate. What will
the teacher get with Handwriting Today? It contains over 72
activity pages in each level. It provides regular revision and
