Product Description
The Write From The Start programme is an invaluable resource designed to support children aged 4 years and older in developing fluent and legible handwriting. Recognising the crucial role of handwriting in the revised National Curriculum and its impact on educational attainment, this programme addresses the complex motor, perceptual, and cognitive skills required, which often need explicit teaching and practice.
Unlike conventional methods, Write From The Start offers a unique and effective approach, guiding children through essential stages of perceptual and fine motor development. This process lays the groundwork for confident, precise handwriting and is proven effective across diverse educational settings and with children of varying needs.
The programme features over 400 meticulously graded activities aimed at strengthening the intrinsic muscles of the hand, enabling children to master letter formation and spatial awareness. Essential perceptual skills covered include:
- Hand-eye coordination
- Form constancy
- Spatial organisation
- Figure-ground discrimination
- Orientation
- Laterality
This structured programme is divided into 8 sections, each accompanied by photocopiable exercise sheets that can be compiled into booklets. These booklets are ideal for continuous progress monitoring by teachers, pupils, and parents alike.
The set includes 3 A4 workbooks: Workbook 1 (120 pages), Workbook 2 (136 pages), and a comprehensive Teacher's Handbook (20 pages). With its targeted exercises and supportive materials, Write From The Start makes the handwriting journey constructive and engaging for both children and educators.
