Handwriting without Tears Kindergarten
Handwriting without Tears aims to make legible and fluent handwriting an automatic, mastered skill. Simple for home educators to use, children develop their writing skills through multisensory play-based instruction. Activities with hands-on materials-Wood Pieces Set, Capital Letter Cards, Mat, CDs, Slate Chalkboard, and Blackboard-address different senses to teach correct formation, spacing, sequencing, and other writing skills.
The student workbook provides the examples, practices, and exercises for the kindergarten student. Perfect for children who need to develop fine motor skills, are still learning prepositions and direction terms, and do not yet know or write letters and numbers, this course will provide a fun, multisensory curriculum to start off their language arts knowledge. Lessons include large step-by-step models that are easy to finger-trace, with starting dots to ensure correct formation. "Learn & Check" sections help teachers and students check letter, word, and sentence skills. 94 pages. Pages are reproducible for the same child's practice and benefit. Pages are not to be reproduced for siblings or others. Grade K.
This kindergarten teacher's guide provides structure for teachers who prefer the lessons outlined by day and week, while page-by-page lesson plans give multiple strategies for teaching the readiness activity or letter. Lessons include scripted questions, reproductions of reduced-size student pages, multisensory activities, finger trace and check models with instructions, page numbers, word lists, and more. 166 pages, softcover.
The Big Sheet Draw & Write 11" x 17" sheets are perfect for writing and drawing. Use for full length sentences or to build a 8.5" x 11" journal by folding pages in half. The Wide Double Line Paper solves the problem of line confusion and helps keep letter placement uniform and neat.
The Rock, Rap, Tap & Learn Audio CD features songs to help develop coordination and rhythm, developing self-esteem and body awareness through upbeat and "rocking" songs.
The set of capital letter cards is designed to be used with Wood Pieces Set for Capital Letters. Cards show the correct formation of capital letters with size, shape, and position concepts.
