Do you have a 2nd grader that is gnawing at the bit to learn cursive? The Zaner-Bloser Handwriting Grade 2C program offers a transition single use, consumable cursive handwriting workbook that instructs students stroke-by-stroke. Through the help of Zaney, your Digital Tutor, your 2nd grade student will launch off in cursive writing. Unit 1 is a manuscript review of letters and numbers. Unit 2 introduces cursive letters, numerals, and the four basic cursive strokes: undercurve, downcurve, overcurve, and diagonal. Unit 3 first focuses on lower-case letters and joining letters together to write words, then covers upper-case letters and joining letters. Unit 4 is the application section where students utilize their new handwriting skills to write narratives, opinions about their favorite color, and make quick lists. Midline space has decreased from the previous level. Pages are perforated for easy removal. Pgs. 164, sc. ~Rebecca

The handwriting style that defined “traditional” is coupled
with exercises to provide clear instruction in all aspects of handwriting. It
covers the four basic letter strokes, slants, spacing, and lots of practice,
giving children a solid foundation in legible handwriting! Taking a theme-based
approach (history or literature), Level K begins with hand-eye coordination and
stroke practice and ends with the complete alphabet. At the lower level,
manuscript is practiced through names and places, writing greetings, etc. In
Grade 2, students either continue with manuscript instruction and practice in
the 2M Book or can be introduced to cursive in the 2C book. Higher grades
continue cursive instruction and handwriting refinement, as they copy and
interact with larger selections. Student books include a QR code that links to
“how-to” videos.
Program components include full-color student books, teacher books, and reproducible practice books. The consumable Student Book is written in an engaging manner and contains ample instruction and modeling, making it possible to use it independently. Teacher Editions open flat and continually emphasize the Review-Practice-Evaluate process and provide helpful information to evaluate handwriting, including teaching the student how to self-evaluate. Reduced-size student pages are shown, along with student reminders, teaching tips, scope and sequence, corrective strategies for specific problems, and support for various learning needs (including English Language learners). Note: The ZBPortal mentioned in TE is not available for home school use. The Practice Book is a collection of reproducible masters to provide students with extra practice. The Teacher Edition coordinates the Practice Book with the Student Book. The Student Book can be purchased separately or in a bundle to best meet your needs. Bundle options include the Student Edition plus Practice Book; Student Edition plus Teacher Edition; and Student Edition, Teacher Edition, and Practice Book. Optional helpful Zaner-Bloser tools are also available.
