Students in this course will learn one family of letters in each session. They may practice in a subsequent session but all letters within each family are practiced to automaticity at the large motor movement level. Only after students can write the family fluently, do they begin to reduce the size and increase the speed.
As students learn each subsequent family, they begin to write words with ONLY the letter forms they have learned.
After learning all lower case letters, students begin to incorporate the cursive handwriting to practice spelling patterns and other language skills.
Student progress can be rapid and self fulfilling.
