Help me give my students handwriting workbooks from the Handwriting without Tears Curriculum

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Yelena's classroom raised $379

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Handwriting is a fundamental skill that forms the foundation for effective communication and academic success. For students in kindergarten to 2nd grade, developing strong handwriting skills is crucial as they begin to express their thoughts and ideas in written form. This project would provide these students with handwriting workbooks from the Handwriting without Tears Curriculum. The workbooks provide a step-by-step approach to learning handwriting, starting with basic strokes and progressing to letters and words.

The workbooks include tracing exercises, coloring, copying, and writing exercises that are fun!

Students can work at their own pace, allowing for personalized learning experiences.
