[quote=Anonymous]First, this is not something you need to worry about in first grade. Who cares if his idiot teacher gives him a bad grade for it. Let him write the way he wants to write, and then get on with your evening. His homework should take 10-15 minutes. After that, he stops. College recruiters will not see this grade. Secondly, he should be writing on something called "Penmanship paper" or "Handwriting paper". There are several different styles but the lines are very wide with a dashed line halfway up that shows where the lower case letters stop. He should be using this paper for all of his work while he develops his skills. There are many practice websites you can use to print this style of paper. Check out this website to print the paper and practice sheets: http://studenthandouts.com/handwriting-worksheets/ [img]http://www.studenthandouts.com/01-Web-Pages/2012-12-a/primary-dashed-writing-paper-one-inch-lines.jpg[/img][/quote]
