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

'The book fulfils its purpose admirably...[It] should be required
reading for all Primary and Secondary headteachers - they lead the
policy making in schools' - Journal of the Writing Equipment
Society `This excellent new text from the handwriting specialist
Rosemary Sassoon will be of great interest to secondary school
SENCOs and a range of other staff supporting children who are
experiencing difficulties with handwriting' - SENCO Update A
considerable proportion of pupils leave primary school unable to
write well enough to deal with the demands of secondary school.
This innovative new book aims to help teachers and SENCOs to work
alongside pupils to help them address their own difficulties. The
book has three parts: Part one explores the various issues which
underpin any discussion of handwriting: letterforms; the pros and
cons of handwriting models; how to help children write at speed;
writing posture; pens and pen hold; left-handedness; talking to
parents; and some of the common causes of handwriting problems.
Part two presents a series of examples of handwriting in
photocopiable form, aimed principally at the pupils but with full
teacher support, designed to show pupils a range of handwriting
problems, helping them them to self-diagnose and work towards
improvement. Each page offers practical tips and help for pupils
with difficulties. All of the photocopiable material is also
provided in electronic format on the companion website. Part three
sets out a diagnostic technique for teachers to follow, outlining
three approaches to tackling handwriting problems: a quick,
small-group assessment; providing one-to-one help; and working with
a whole class. Each approach is outlined in detail, offering advice
on effective observation, procedures to follow in giving
appropriate practical help to pupils, and how to assess progress.
Part three also offers guidelines for designing checklists, and the
role of surveys and research. Authoritative, wide-ranging and full
of practical help, this book will be particularly useful for
secondary teachers, secondary SENCOs and teaching support staff.
