Description
A Reason For is excited to introduce the Teacher Guidebook for our Pre-K and Kindergarten Handwriting student worktexts. The new Teacher Guidebook includes instructor materials for Pre-K Letter Introduction and Kindergarten Beginning Manuscript.
The guide provides daily lesson plans for the Pre-K and Kindergarten student worktexts, Manuscript letter formation chart, teaching tips and techniques, strategies for remedial instruction, extended teaching / enrichment activities, reproducible student resources, and more. 178 pgs.
A Reason for Handwriting is an appealing, full-color Christian handwriting program that provides instruction and practice in traditional style handwriting with about 30 lessons per level (except for K, which has 49). Each level has a letter designation, with a whole book for transition from manuscript to cursive in between B and C. The updated 2023 Transition Book (Level T) is designed to replace either Level B (preferred) or Level C (a later transition for students needing extra manuscript practice). If using the Level T book to replace Level C, students will review manuscript prior to starting cursive, midway through the year. Starting in Book C, all handwriting is cursive. In the more advanced levels, discussion questions accompany the weekly Bible verse.
In the Transition Book and Book C, lines are 3/8" while manuscript books have lines that are 5/8". Each student workbook (except K level) contains a large back section of border sheets (one per lesson featuring nicely lined and bordered papers) as a weekly challenge for students to write their scripture verses on them "in their best handwriting." Scripture verses are taken from the Living Bible translation.
The Student Desk Card shows manuscript and cursive letters on a personal-sized card, or you can put the big letters up on the wall using the alphabet wall sheets. One comprehensive teacher's guide covers the whole series. Please note that sets are also available, which include the student book and teacher guide at a discount.
