Handwriting

In the last few weeks we have had a big focus on handwriting, encouraging the use of neat handwriting whenever we do any written work. We set up a few stations last week to give us practise at forming letters correctly, and to develop more refined motor skills. 

One activity was using the light box.

We practised using tweezers to pass counters 
from one plate to another to help develop motor skills.


We also passed pompoms. 


We had a go at tracing patterns to help 
develop pencil control. 

The final station was letter formation, trying to 
remember to start letters at the correct places and
 make each letter the right shape and size.
