Emma Kate's class is working on forming letters the correct way using the Handwriting Without Tears program. Practice forming letters with your child. Use the Handwriting Without Tears letter formation chart as a guide: http://www.hwtears.com/parents/parentextras

A few letter formation ideas:

• Have child create labels for items found in the home
• Have child write a story with simple sentences, using correct letter formation and using capital letters appropriately
• Check to ensure child is writing left to right and top to bottom appropriately
