HANDWRITING

Please ask your child to practise the formation of a letter they find tricky or one you have noticed they don't form correctly.

They can either use their Phonics and Handwriting Book (if they have one) or you can print the formation sheets for the required letter from the website, carefully selecting the pages needed.

If your child is confident with all or most of the letters, then they can copy their spellings into their exercise book.

Look carefully at how they join the letters together and check they are using the correct formation.
