I am teaching a Science summer camp. Yesterday, when I started this post and my computer died. I left my computer charger at school. UGH. I got there early this morning so I could get this posted right away.
The internet did not work.
UGH!!! Luckily, I live right by the school and came hom on my lunch hour. Next week, it should be up Tuesday night.
I do not like teaching handwriting. I think it is hard for a lot of kids. When they are writing, they focus more on handwriting then the quality of their writing. However, I know it is important for them to learn to write. I created these alphabet cards last year. I laminated them and put them at the writing center with dry erase markers. This quickly became a student FAVORITE. Some kids come into Kindergarten and do not know their letters. It may even be hard for them to match upper and lower case letters. However, they could all trace. Most of my students quickly mastered handwriting without worksheets. Plus, they started to associate the letters with the pictures. It decided to make more laminated tracing centers.
What kid doesn’t love write the room? Hang up the letters around the room and students can walk around and practice writing the letters. There are four different recording sheets – upper case letters, lower case letters, both upper and lower case letters, and blank.
