Learning to write can be a daunting task - it takes lots of
practice to get those letter shapes correct. Luckily, that's
exactly what this fantastic Daily Practice workbook for the
Reception Spring Term is for! It's packed with colourful characters
and engaging activities - there's an exercise for every school day
of the term, with self-assessment tick boxes at the bottom of each
page. Every week there are fun activities to practise that
all-important pencil control. There are examples and outlines of
letters and numbers for pupils to trace, so it's perfect for
getting pupils confident with handwriting, either in class or at
home! For complete coverage of Reception, buy this with our books
for the Autumn (9781789088250) and Summer (9781789088274) terms!
The Handwriting Practice books support literacy in schools by
giving children practice in forming and joining letters, helping
them to develop handwriting that is neat, fluent, legible and fast.
Fully compatible with any school handwriting scheme, Handwriting
Practice works methodically through the different letters and
joins, and features workbook style exercises for children to
complete. The simple format of the books makes them easily
accessible, enabling all children to work independently - though
support from an adult helper is always beneficial. FOCUS points at
the foot of each page highlight key points for helpers to look out
for. Handwriting Practice 2 focuses on joining letters to form
words, beginning with letters of a particular shape, those found in
common combinations, and themed word practice. By the end of
Handwriting Practice 2, children should be able to write fluently
on lined paper. Children are supported by shaded lines to write
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.
This brilliant CGP Handwriting Practice Book for Year 2 pupils
(ages 6-7) introduces joined-up handwriting in a fun and accessible
way. After a brief recap of all the letters of the alphabet, it
moves onto joined-up handwriting. Each different type of join is
covered, starting with an example that has arrows to follow to make
the join. Pupils can then practise tracing and copying the join on
its own, then within a range of words, all with guidelines and
starting dots. Break letters and capital letters are also covered.
At the end of the book, pupils can practise their joined-up
handwriting by copying out longer pieces of writing. Hints are
provided at the start of the book.
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

The objectives of Book 1 are to establish good basic habits of
paper positioning and pencil hold, and to develop the fine motor
skills needed for accurate, consistent writing. The book takes the
young writer from basic pencil handling and co-ordination exercises
through to formation of letters and simple short words. The 28
worksheets contain an entertaining mix of games and puzzles, which
parents (or grandparents!) and child will enjoy doing together.
Billy Beetle, Sam Spider, Willie Woodlouse and Sally Snail lead the
left-handed child through the worksheets. The illustrations are
aimed primarily at the 6-7 year-old, when many left-handed children
become more conscious of the difference between their writing style
and that of their right-handed peers. However, the overall design
is suitable for any age: we've heard from grateful users nearer to
retirement age than to next year's Year 2...
