[quote=Anonymous]Handwriting Without Tears, now called Learning Without Tears, is a curriculum. Not a workbook. It uses a variety of materials, like wood pieces, playdough, chalk, etc. It is not a "letter of the week" program. Also, it is the curriculum that is the standard now in school systems in the area, so your child will get familiar with some of the materials and the general approach, which is good. If the pre-K teachers are genuinely familiar with the curriculum, then it is great. The program does have a pre-K workbook included, so if your teacher is leaving everything else included in the curriculum out and just handing the kids their books (which I am sure happens sometimes--teachers are busy) then it is not good. PPs--note that the OP asked for info from someone who was familiar with Handwriting Without Tears. [/quote]
