Trace and Write Alphabets and Sentences for Beginning Writers

By Macy McCullough

The Trace and Write Alphabets and Sentences for Beginning Writers workbook, provides extensive focus on alphabet formation for the beginning writer. This children's handwriting and alphabet practice workbook will also introduce beginning writers to short sentence formation using punctuation. This penmanship workbook will help increase your student's ability to: -Print uppercase and lowercase letters of the alphabet and recognize the difference between the two. -Write from left to right and top to bottom of page. -Recognize spacing between letters and eventually words. -Understand the concept of writing letters. -Write words and brief sentences that are legible. -Write his/her own first and last name and other important words. Some neurologists advocate writing to learn. One states, "The practice of writing can enhance the brain's intake, processing, retaining, and retrieving of information. Through writing, students can increase their comfort with and success in understanding complex material, unfamiliar concepts, and subject-specific vocabulary." Since preschool, kindergarten, and 1st grade students do not have to prepare for standardized tests and classroom assessments, focus can instead be placed on their literacy development. Reading to children and talking to them directly can be huge. Parents can start conversations-helping to build verbal vocabulary, write a grocery list together-helping to practice handwriting skills, and select books together at the library-allowing students to enjoy the usefulness of the printed word. Another way to raise their awareness of language in their environment is to point to street signs, billboards, traffic signs, and menus in restaurants. The Trace and Write Alphabets and Sentences for Beginning Writers is a great resource that can be used in conjunction with other handwriting, alphabet tracing, ABC dry erase boards, classroom assignments, online computer alphabet software, and homeschool curriculum.
