Rhythm of Handwriting

A multi-sensory approach that helps students develop fluid, legible handwriting. It's a writing curriculum featuring concise instructions, highlighting rhythm, simplicity and logical order. The founder realized that despite her background in teaching English as a second language, she could not explain most of the reasons behind the sounding of words while reading. She stumbled upon Orton phonograms and created a successful presentation. The kit contains materials to help guide the learning of rhythmic writing. One would open the book and follow along using the whiteboard, writing within the lines, using the techniques described. There are tactile cards Good for students who want to excel in cursive or manuscript style writing. Also seems to be especially helpful for children with dyslexia. I have not seen any information about that. I have not seen any information about that.

Grades: PreK (ages 0-5), Kindergarten, 1st

Cost: It's 49.99 for the kit containing the book, whiteboard, quick reference, tactile cards, and desk strip
