Case: Student Handwriting
With the increased rigor in our Kindergarten standards, there just doesn't seem to be time to explicitly teach our students how to correctly form letters and numbers. As students progress through the grade levels, I often hear complaints that their handwriting is atrocious. Is the explicit teaching of handwriting important, even if it isn't a standard? If so, when do you teach it, and with what resources?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Students at this level should have a daily writing block which includes journal writing and that is where the continued practice on legibility should come into play. Prepare an easy to follow rubric that includes items such as correct punctuation, spelling of sight words, and good handwriting skills. The students can self-assess whether they have met all criteria. Make it fun! |

Comments: Practice makes perfect! If there are issues, they can be addressed individually. Some problems come from lack of hand muscles, which can be fixed with hand exercises. |
