Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 2
We will begin with a story called "Sky, Trees, and Ground:  A Book About Handwriting".  We will learn how writing lines can be correlated with those points of reference in nature.  We will learn the correct size and position of each letter, both upper and lowercase, as well as the proper formation of each.  We will undertake approximately 10 letters each day with demonstrations and hands-on practice on the writing pages provided.  This approach is one I designed as a classroom teacher and is one that kids readily connect with and respond to very well.

Course Agenda:
Day 1:  Story and letters A,E,F,H,I, and K
Day 2:  Letters  L,M,N,T,V,W,X,Y, and Z
Day 3:  Letters B,C,D,G,J,O,P,Q,R,S, and U
Day 4:  a,c,e,i,m,n,o,r,s,u,v,w,x, and z
Day 5:  b,d,f,h,k,l,t,g,j,p,q,and y

Learning Goals

Students will  improve their printed handwriting of each alphabet letter, both upper and lowercase with respect to size, position, and correct formation.

Hello!  My name is Mrs. Candice and I love teaching and learning!  After many years of classroom teaching, I've helped hundreds of children learn to love reading and gain confidence in early math.  I've also fallen in love with online teaching and am excited to help even more children using this powerful medium!  I believe in making learning fun and supporting a high level of learner engagement!  
I love writing children's books that teach academic and social concepts using stories that kids can relate to.  I believe in the power of stories to teach content and in hands-on learning to strengthen understanding. 
I look forward to working with you and your child!
