ABC學習手寫

This course is designed to help young children learn the basic strokes used for printing letters and numerals. Students will follow instructions on how to hold and manipulate a writing instrument. Students will become familiar with direction and position words such as top, middle, bottom, below,  above, down, up, left, and right. In this class, students listen and follow instructions as they learn how to print the letters of the alphabet. At the beginning of each class, students will have the opportunity to write their names in correct manuscript form. Approximately 15 minutes will be guided practice as students learn the different strokes that makeup manuscript letters. This teacher-directed activity reinforces the student's eye-hand coordination. Approximately 10 minutes will allow students to use their writing and drawing skills creatively.
I have a flexible teaching style that encourages creativity; however, in this particular class, I will expect students to follow explicit instructions when forming the letters.
