Why is Handwriting Important? Research shows when students can spell and read the words, they are more likely to master and better apply the new skill. When students are taught how to properly form the letters and master phonics skills, students can free up their working memory to focus on the content of their writing.
What Grades Does This Program Serve? Grades K-1, Countdown (instruction) and Blast.
How is this complimentary to my current instruction? For example, in Countdown, it will be inserted within Name that Sound. Students will be able to see the letter, name the letter, hear and say the letter sound, and write the letter with proper formation. Students will write the letter after they have learned to identify the name and sound of the letter. This will allow students to simultaneously spell and properly form the letter.
