Handwriting Without Tears

We used the ‘Alphabet Mat‘ to look for the letters in our name. We first found the letters in Ms. Shemo’s name. Students who had the letters S-H-E-M-O in their names looked for letters on the alphabet mat. 

The students were introduced to manipulatives used with the programme ‘Handwriting Without Tears‘. 

The students use special wood pieces to create the letters. These are placed in a particular order which help students learn to print them correctly. The students used the wood pieces to make the first letter of their name. 

 

The programme introduces students to the capital letters first. All capitals start at the top and strokes are made in correct sequence.
