Pages 1-17:
* Unique visual supports such as Go-Dots, Gray-Boxes, and easy to understand arrows that give your children essential motor practice using correct and efficient motor-paths.

Included in this download:
1. Lowercase at Last -Book 2:This 34 page book is designed for children of developmental ages 5 to 8 years who have had good initial explicit instruction [e.g. starting with Capitals First and then Lowercase at Last Book One with Teachers Guide] but have not yet developed motor memory of using single stroke letter formations and starting letters at the top.
2. Lowercase at Last -Book 3: Provides the same content of Book 2 but at a smaller size. I use Book 3 with children who are in grades 1 and beyond who have the motor control to write smaller, but still need intense instruction and practice in forming lowercase letters.
3. Progress-Monitor Tool, a 4-page guide: Learning letter formations are the foundation to developing automatic handwriting which in turn is the foundation for written communication. If your children are having difficulties, this tool will help you to quickly and efficiently find out which letters are correct, what the primary area of difficulty is and then document progress.
4. Lowercase Group Formation posters. This file includes the
Four groups of lowercase letters based on similar formations to maximize efficient motor learning.
Lowercase at Last Books 2 and 3 Lowercase Intervention Bundle HWT Style Font uses its own font that more closely resembles Handwriting Without Tears than Zaner-Bloser or D’Nealian. Letters have a vertical alignment, they do not push off the writing line, and it is visually evident that most lowercase letters are made with single strokes. Print Path has its own distinct curriculum with scope, sequence, visual cues, verbal path of movement language, and multisensory methods.
