Handwriting

We're learning how to write letters correctly.  We want letters to be the right shape and the right size. Before we started learning how to write specific letters, we noticed that letters had common strokes like vertical or diagonal lines.  We took some time to sort letters by their lines.

Here we are looking for letters.

 Can you find a letter with diagonal lines?

 Can you find a letter with a curve?

 Can you find a letter with a vertical line?

When out and about, go on a letter hunt.  What letter(s) do you see with a horizontal line, etc.?  Also, ask your child where letters start!
