Feature Fridays! Penmanship

​Penmanship - the art or skill of writing by hand.  An important skill to be had for sure!

​Today, we will discover what tools we have for your child to practice their skills!

The act of writing by hand has been shown to

• reduce stress
• improve focus and attention
• increase creativity, learning and memory 

Among many other benefits depending on what we write about!  I don't know about you but receiving a handwritten letter, note or card is a nice surprise and mood elevator :)

We have many tools available to help your child practice and improve their penmanship...

Textured Touch and Trace Cards provide a multi-sensory experience for learning not only letter recognition but also the correct way to form both lower and uppercase letters!

Did you know that teaching your kids lowercase letters is important?  The majority of what we write and read is mostly in lower case.  Learning is also easier than "unlearning" or breaking a habit, like writing in all uppercase letters.

​We also have options for dry erase activities!  Use them over and over again to perfect that letter formation.

Workbooks also allow for the trace method and writing on your own in both manuscript and cursive

Come check out what we have available for letter recognition too
