This product details in words how to form letters and numbers correctly. You can use the words to repeat to your child as they form their letters or numbers, thus encouraging them to form them correctly. There is an example for each lower and upper case letter and number. There is information on left and right handedness. Forming letters correctly is an essential skill. Once bad habits are learnt it is hard to correct them. Unless a child forms letters correctly it will be difficult for them to write at speed when they are older. Forming letters and numbers correctly is best taught on a one to one basis. This product works very well in conjunction with the alphabet worksheets and the capital letter formation guides.
