1 6. Handwriting Writing also depends on fluent, legible and, eventually, speedy handwriting. -National Curriculum Created by L.Davis

2 Progression in handwriting: Year One Year Two H1.1 I can sit correctly at a table, holding a pencil comfortably and correctly. H1.2 I can begin to form lower-case letters in the correct direction, starting and finishing in the right place. H1.3 I can form capital letters. H1.4 I can form digits 0-9. H2.1 I can form lower-case letters of the correct size relative to one another. H2.2 I can start using some of the diagonal and horizontal strokes needed to join letters. H2.3 I can write capital letters and digits of the correct size, orientation and relationship to one another and to lower case letters. H2.4 I can use spacing between words that reflects the size of the letters. H3.1 I can use the diagonal and horizontal strokes that are needed to join letters. Year Three/ Four Year Five/ Six H4.1 I can increase the legibility, consistency and quality of my handwriting, e.g. by ensuring that the downstrokes of letters are parallel and equidistant; that lines of writing are spaced sufficiently so that the ascenders and descenders of letters do not touch. H5.1 I can write legibly, fluently and with increasing speed by: choosing which shape of a letter to use when given choices and deciding, as part of my own personal style, whether or not to join specific letters. H6.1 I can write legibly, fluently and with increasing speed by: choosing the writing implement that is best suited for a task (e.g. quick notes, letters). * H5.1 and H6.1 will be taught where necessary due to the requirement of pupil choice. Before you start: Created by L.Davis

3 H1.1 I can sit correctly at a table, holding a pencil comfortably and correctly. Relax hand, as if walking along the street ( resting hand). Finger-position in a resting hand. Created by L.Davis

4 Finger-position in a resting hand. Same resting position, simply with the elbow bent and forearm placed on the table. The pencil is simply slid between the thumb, index and middle finger (try to hold as high up as possible so wrist stays flexible). Ensure wrist is not hooked so that movements can maintain fluidity. Children should NEVER write in a squared position. It stops them from using muscles flexibly. Righthanders When children learn to hold the paper, the angle of the paper placement should allow them to keep the writing arm at the bottom of the paper rather than to right side. Arm entry is the crucial objective. That is why writing position differs from reading position. When the writing hand is under the baseline, lateral movement is not blocked. Created by L.Davis

5 Left-handers In order to write without covering letter-forms, left-handed children must learn to write sideways. This also means they must be able to recognise forms when the paper is turned for writing position. The left arm must enter the paper from the bottom right as illustrated. If the arm and elbow are positioned properly, the child can learn to push letter downstrokes to the left using natural movement. Handwriting Phase 1. H1.2 I can begin to form lower-case letters in the correct direction, starting and finishing in the right place. 1a. AROUND Letters Created by L.Davis
