Guest Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Just wondering what people use in the way of handwriting sheets (if any). I'm looking for something to do alongside the letter formation we do in the sand tray/on wall with water etc. The scheme we use at school has really boring sheets that do not interest the children! Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Hi bethie I'm in pre-school so I can't really help - but I am doing a research project on worksheets so I'm interested to know which scheme you use at present? Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I don't do handwriting sheets with my Reception children, although I do use the ground/grass/sky 'boards' kindly made by Sparklebox. With my Y1s, I have used the Jolly Phonics photocopiables for letter formation, and a letter formation booklet from Sparklebox. Now they can write their letters correctly and neatly, they are doing handwriting in their normal literacy books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 We do 'rainbow writing' which we make ourselves. Select outline in the format tab. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maz We use Penpals scheme throughout the school (cambridge university press). It comes with big book/cd rom for use on the interactive whiteboard. You can get pupil books for children to use but we don't use them is they are not very inspiring. It has some printed sheets that you can get off the cd-rom but agin they aren't great.
