Back to School Undrained
Many of the ideas that I have shared with you throughout our summer Brain Drain series are excellent tools for your visual learner to use throughout the school year to reinforce those new concepts that they will inevitably be learning, and possibly having difficulty grasping.
7 Days to Better Handwriting Is Back!
Handwriting is really just drawing letters. And every child can use a little more practice with pencil control and focusing on what they are writing without the pressure of having to generate unique thoughts to write. My 7 Days to Better Handwriting is designed to do just that.
Better Handwriting Day 7: Home Stretch
You and your child made it to the finish line… almost. Today’s final exercise is a chance to take all the skills we’ve practiced this week and put them together. Drawing, writing, spacing and coloring: invaluable ingredients to perfecting handwriting at any age.
Better Handwriting Day 6: Size and Spacing
Another common issue early writers struggle with is the spacing between words. Kids are either writing HUGE LETTERS that are spaced out beyond belief or they can often be found writing tiny, tiny, tiny letters squished so close together you can’t read them.
Better Handwriting Day 5: Fun and Focus
Who doesn’t love to color? Even adults, who swear they have no artistic training or skill can’t pass up a few easy shapes and a new box of crayons or fresh juicy markers.
Better Handwriting Day 4: Back to Basics
Day Four of the Handwriting Challenge is another easy, but effective set of exercises. No matter the trend, year, even age, this classic activity always wins.
Better Handwriting Day 3: Picture Writing
Handwriting is all about drawing. Writing is drawing letter shapes, while being aware of the sizes and unique details of each letter.
Better Handwriting Day 2: Pencil Practice
Drawing shapes is great precursor to writing without the stress of letter shapes or words. The physical steps of drawing shapes repeated will greatly help your children developmentally. Going through a repetitive step such as drawing shapes will reinforce the process and the muscle memory. It also helps develop pencil control.
