Form I and II: Writing: Handwriting: Make a Game of it!
More on this at Northwest Montessori |
For some reason children love to write on chalk and whiteboards, so they don't resist practicing writing as much if you allow them to do it on a whiteboard. We were practicing numerals so I have numeral cards on the wall to help them, if they have problems remembering how to form the numerals. They took turns picking the numeral for each other. With their dyslexia and dysgraphia, both Student Four and Student Three still have trouble forming their numerals (and letters) correctly, often writing them backwards. Games and fun ways of practicing always help older children accept the extra practice they need.
