When children write what they learn, they learn it better. This is because handwriting allows access to kinesthetic (motion) memory, the earliest, strongest and most reliable memory channel. **
This is why handwriting goes hand in hand with reading, and why Progressive Phonics offers handwriting worksheets for each phonics book.
To access the handwriting worksheets, visitors need to purchase a SET of books -- each set includes the phonics reading books and handwriting worksheets for a particular level (beginning, intermediate or advanced).
Benefits:
Reinforces memory of words. Trains the left-to-right and up-to-down patterns that are
necessary for fluent reading of English. Uses the "Sassoon" font (typestyle) -- the "Sassoon" font
was specially developed for children learning to read and
write. Print as many copies as you need so that children can
practice, practice, practice.
