Handwriting Improvement Workbook Derek Schuger

What is handwriting practice for? A neat and elegant writing style, right? However, it is only a small part of the answer. The ultimate function of handwriting training, as an organic part of the educational process, is to form good organizational skills and a creative mindset. It is a preparation for future advancements, like studying times tables for math. A top student will need the good organizational skill to write down well organized equations and be able to recognize his/her study notes the next day. From a communication and creativity standpoint, recent studies have shown that students write more words, and express more ideas when writing essays by hand, versus with a keyboard. The capabilities of writing and drawing give students more tools to compose ideas and express their thoughts. This book provides numerous exercises, including the tracing of letters/words, graphic characters and math questions, in order to facilitate the development of fine hand motor capabilities and to help culture the foundations of organizational skills and a creative mindset. The font used in this book is specially designed based on the fundamental of calligraphy for elementary school students. They will have fun with this book, form good organizational skills and a creative mindset simultaneously. This book provides advanced tools for students wanting to edge further ahead of the competitive curve.
