Children learn in different ways.
Some kids learn best through hearing material presented to them, others need some type of visual or tactile cues...and then there are the children that require a combination of approaches.
Participants will learn about different learning styles

Handwriting Tips |

Quick Classroom Tips to Improve Handwriting
By Tara Calder, OTR/L
This article is reprinted with permission of Super Duper Publications®.
Children over age five spend most of the school day writing. Generally, children that write well perform better in sc hool. In fact, studies show that young children with poor handwriting skills produce shorter, less complex written assignments than their classmates with good handwriting. The same studies also note that when children improve their handwriting, they also improve the length and complexity of their written assignments. Although teachers in older grades do not give a separate grade for handwriting, poor handwriting can lead to lower grades on written work. When given two identical papers, one written with good handwriting and one written with poor handwriting, people consistently rate the messier papers lower in quality and content.
