Cover of Penpals for Handwriting Foundation 1 Mark-making and Creativity Teacher's Book and Audio CD
Penpals for Handwriting provides five unique developmental phases to provide clear progression for children aged 3-11. The CD-ROMs support interactive, direct teaching to the whole class using an interactive whiteboard. Big Books also provide consolidation and extra practice for small groups working with a Teaching Assistant and are ideal for use with small groups. Essential learning is reinforced through links to phonics and spelling, and sky-writing and lesson warm ups develop the fine and gross motor skills. Penpals makes frequent links to other literacy objectives so handwriting lessons also become an opportunity to revise other aspects of writing. Letter-formation practice is linked with spelling patterns, resulting in efficient handwriting and higher quality writing.

Cover of Penpals for Handwriting Years 5 and 6 Teacher's Book with OHTs on CD-ROM Enhanced edition
Penpals for Handwriting is a complete handwriting scheme for 3-11 year-olds, covering attainment targets for the National Literacy Strategy. Teaching letter shapes and joins through stimulating and motivating activities, this scheme leads the way to fast, fluent and legible handwriting. Whole-class teaching via Big Books and OHTs provides an effective focus, from which pupils can gain the confidence for their own practice through finger tracing, pencil tracing and independent writing via Practice Books. From the beginning, the application of Fine and Gross Motor skills plays an integral part in the development of a fluent hand. The teaching methods outlined in Penpals are linked to spelling and can help to improve overall attainment in writing. Year 5\6 explores an independent approach to writing through project work and self-assessment - developing appropriate styles for speed and fluency.
