SImple, evidence-based strategies to help improve your students' handwriting and overall literacy abilities!
YOU WILL LEARN
Allow me to guide you through why making the effort to incorporate time for handwriting in today's classrooms is so worthwhile - it's definitely beyond learning to handwrite for the sake of having 'neat' handwriting or learning to hold a pencil properly!!
Discover why it is so important to support your students' development of automated handwriting and gain a greater insight into how invaluable and precious this skill is for your students' overall literacy abilities and general wellbeing.
Learn how you can optimise your instructional time and integrate automated handwriting using 'tried & tested' evidence-based strategies with your students as you encourage and support them to develop handwriting automaticity - with minimal prep and cost!
You can absolutely very easily make a start and fit these 'tips and tricks' into your busy schedule, for example, to grab 15-20 mins a day, 3-4 times a week to provide explicit handwriting instruction and to practice, practice, practice - truly words can't express or explain what you will observe in your students (even the most reluctant and avoidant of writers!!) and how beneficial it is for them!!
This short course requires an investment of approx. 1 1/2 hours to complete. You are free to do it 'movie style' in one viewing or in smaller segments of time, however it suits you - you have lifetime access! It includes videos, guides, cheatsheets and some reference article resources. It is designed for you to easily apply what you learn straight away, equipping you with a greater understanding and confidence - knowing that your students will reap the benefits, in so many ways - as you guide & instruct them today for their tomorrow!
"Iāve had a lovely time today, listening to your course. I think it is fabulous!! Youāve done a great job, your presentation tone is spot on ā very easy to listen to and learn from!"
"I just finished the 'Handwriting Automaticity Matters' course and thoroughly enjoyed it - thank you! I am just beginning as a literacy tutor, so this information is so valuable for me. Thank you so much."
"Yes, you are absolutely free to do that, but once you hear how amazing developing handwriting automaticity can be for your students' overall learning - you might like to reconsider?Ā
So firstly, can I take a moment or two of your time, to share briefly how handwriting benefits your students' learning and their brains?
Basically, it is the 'glue' that makes letters stick as writing by hand delivers information into the brain in a unique way, totally different, to using a keyboard!Ā Ā And of course, handwriting and touch typing in this technological age are both vital.
Handwriting as a written form of communication is a very complex skill to master and learning it, is beyond just handwriting for the sake of it!!Ā
Handwriting links neural pathways for learning and memory which support development of reading fluency and spelling!
Taking the time to develop automated handwriting also benefits a child's overall literacy abilities by reducing the cognitive load needed to remember how to form the letters, therefore freeing up 'thinking or processing space' to then attend to grammar, punctuation, spelling and letter and word spacing etc.Ā
I would like to encourage you, if you have been trying to navigate the internet 'maze' searching for the best ways to support your strugglingĀ students....you are not alone... that is why I have released this course to share of my experience as a paediatric occupational therapist putting the evidence to practice in my own clinical work with children since 2005.
