Handwriting

English Language Arts

• The child has learned proper letter formation and letter recognition through practicing handwriting.
• They have developed fine motor skills by holding and controlling a pencil or pen while writing.
• They have improved their hand-eye coordination by tracing and copying letters.
• They have learned the importance of spacing and alignment by writing words and sentences.

To continue developing handwriting skills, encourage the child to write in a journal or diary regularly. They can also practice writing letters or messages to friends or family members. Another fun activity is to create their own story or book and write it out by hand.
