[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only way to ensure that your child learns to form letters correctly is to spend one on one time teaching your child. Kinder teachers can't sit next to every kid and make sure each child starts letters at the top, uses proper spacing (ex. Y, p, g ) goes below the line, etc. it is worth buying a Handwriting Without Tears workbook,kumon book, or another handwriting book and have your child practice for 5 min. a day. You have to sit next to your child to make sure the letters are formed properly. Once a kid learns to form letters incorrectly it is really hard to undo. By first grade has printing habits are ingrained.[/quote] My 4th grader has atrocious handwriting. We are trying to fix it now. I wish I had focused a little more on it in kindergarten. [/quote]
