Penpals for Handwriting is a complete handwriting scheme for 3-11 year
olds. The Practice Books provide specific handwriting focused practice -
either introducing or practising letters, joins or key concepts such as
size and proportion. They are designed to support independent practice
in the classroom, following a whole-class teaching session. Each page
corresponds to the units within the Teacher's Books and includes
opportunities for: Finger and pencil tracing, writing letters or joins;
Writing phrases or sentences; Pattern practice; Self-assessment check.
In Year 4, we move on from letter formation and joins to look at more
technical aspects such as letter height and formation.
