Our state standards for English Language Arts require us to teach letter identification, letter ordering (alphabetical order), letter sounds, and letter formation (handwriting). Currently, we do not have a cohesive program to teach these skills, and our team does the best we can with the resources we pull together. Handwriting Without Tears--the materials we've requested--will help us teach every single one of these skills to our students! Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, our students missed out on learning some of these foundational skills at the preschool level. When they came to kindergarten, they weren't prepared, and we spent a lot of time at the beginning of the year reviewing preschool concepts. If we had these materials, our students would leave kindergarten knowing all of their letters and sounds, and they would be able to form them correctly. In first grade, it's expected for students to be able to write 3-5 sentences, but if they don't leave kindergarten with the right tools, they will struggle. These resources will eliminate that struggle.
