Italic Handwriting Book A Kindergarten With clever illustrations and plenty of space for writing and drawing on each individual letter page, this first book in the Series provides practice with basic shapes. It introduces primary italic lowercase families and capitals, one letter per page, and includes numerals. Known for its beautifully legible appearance and natural flow, Italic Handwriting is a long-time favorite with our customers. We Appreciate Legible Handwriting We've always been relatively low-key about the need for a handwriting course. Before the advent of internet orders, we saw examples of handwriting, both good and bad, and everywhere in between. And we realized that poor handwriting is seemingly no hindrance to success in life. Yet back in the day, when most of our orders came by mail, we undeniably appreciated good, readable handwriting. Smooth Transition from Printing to Cursive The Italic Handwriting Series does more than teach fine skills. It resulted in something that was beautifully legible! This is the course we used with our children. While the results varied depending on the child, Italic Handwriting was logical because the transition from printing to cursive was exceptionally smooth. It is easy to write as it conforms to natural hand movements. Each Italic Handwriting book has the basics of forming each letter and then age-appropriate exercises that students do in the workbook. New students should start the program at grade level. From the Publisher: Handwriting: It helps us learn, share ideas, and be creative. Handwriting today is both a tool for learning and a professional skill. We need a handwriting style that keeps up with the demands of modern life. It needs to be legible and logical, easy to write and easy to learn. When it comes to being understood, handwriting still matters. And yet, as authors Barbara Getty and Inga Dubay write, “American handwriting is in a woeful state. We have become a 'please print' nation. But there is hope. We can stop mumbling on paper and become legible writers. We can go italic.” Keep the focus on learning. For early learners, literacy and language development are foundations of readiness, and research suggests that handwriting is a key component. Learning to write letters and form words are powerful first steps toward academic success. A seamless transition. With the Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series, kids learn one alphabet — basic italic transitions naturally to cursive. In elementary school, handwriting is an important scaffold for basic literacy skills. For middle school students, fluent handwriting means more language arts success, and better preparation for high school.

Italic Handwriting Book G Grade 6

Italic Handwriting Book F Grade 5 Cursive writing practice includes: synonyms, antonyms, simile, metaphors, word origins, onomatopoeia proverbs, homophones, homographs, analogies, oxymorons tongue twisters, pangrams, and palindromes. Native American nations, tribes, and communities. This volume also includes the history of letters and numerals. We Appreciate Legible Handwriting We've always been relatively low-key about the need for a handwriting course. Before the advent of internet orders, we saw examples of handwriting, both good and bad, and everywhere in between. And we realized that poor handwriting is seemingly no hindrance to success in life. Yet back in the day, when most of our orders came by mail, we undeniably appreciated good, readable handwriting. Smooth Transition from Printing to Cursive The Italic Handwriting Series does more than teach fine skills. It resulted in something that was beautifully legible! This is the course we used with our children. While the results varied depending on the child, Italic Handwriting was logical because the transition from printing to cursive was exceptionally smooth. It is easy to write as it conforms to natural hand movements. Each Italic Handwriting book has the basics of forming each letter and then age-appropriate exercises that students do in the workbook. New students should start the program at grade level. From the Publisher: Handwriting: It helps us learn, share ideas, and be creative. Handwriting today is both a tool for learning and a professional skill. We need a handwriting style that keeps up with the demands of modern life. It needs to be legible and logical, easy to write, and easy to learn. When it comes to being understood, handwriting still matters. And yet, as authors Barbara Getty and Inga Dubay write, “American handwriting is in a woeful state. We have become a 'please print' nation. But there is hope. We can stop mumbling on paper and become legible writers. We can go italic.” Keep the focus on learning. For early learners, literacy and language development are foundations of readiness, and research suggests that handwriting is a key component. Learning to write letters and form words are powerful first steps toward academic success. A seamless transition. With the Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series, kids learn one alphabet — basic italic transitions naturally to cursive. In elementary school, handwriting is an important scaffold for basic literacy skills. For middle school students, fluent handwriting means more language arts success, and better preparation for high school.

Italic Handwriting Book F Grade 5

Italic Handwriting Instruction Manual There is only one Instruction Manual, and it is for use with the entire series A - G, devoting a few pages to each book. It contains helpful hints on teaching the italic, with sections covering Assessment, Implementation, Activities, and Supplements. In the back of the book, there is a very useful section of blank pages with ruled lines depicting examples of the line widths used throughout the series. The Instruction Manual is an extremely helpful tool for teachers in a school setting, as well as homeschoolers seeking a helpful guide on teaching the program to their children. About Italic Handwriting: We used to get many calls from moms asking about a handwriting program. For nearly 7 years of business, we did not carry a handwriting course for 2 reasons. The first is that we are fairly low-key about the need for a handwriting course. Being a mail-order business, we have seen handwriting of every description and realize good or bad handwriting is seemingly no hindrance to success in life. However, because we are a mail-order business, we undeniably appreciate good handwriting, and often comment amongst ourselves when the order form is particularly readable. If we were to carry a handwriting course, it would have to do more than teach fine skills. It would have to result in something that was beautifully legible! This brings us to the second reason why we have never carried a handwriting course. The course we are and have been using with our children was not available for resale when we originally asked. Sure, there were and are dozens of adequate handwriting courses available for resale. But in clear conscience, we couldn't and wouldn't sell what we ourselves won't use. So when Portland State University changed their policies and contacted us about being dealers, we were only too happy to sign up! Italic Handwriting is: Gloriously legible. Logical because the transition from printing to cursive is exceptionally smooth. Easy to write as it conforms to natural hand movements. Traditional cursive, written fast, is nearly illegible. However, in cursive italic handwriting, the letters are formed quickly and easily and with no loops to clutter. Even rapidly written cursive italic is easy to read. Handwriting, especially in this era of word processors, takes a fairly low priority compared to other subjects. However, if you are going to make handwriting a part of your curriculum, why not use the best? We've looked at a lot and think that as far as a lifetime skill, Italic Handwriting wins "hands down!" Each book has the basics of how to form each letter and then age-appropriate exercises that students do in the workbook. New students should start the program at grade level. The Instruction Manual is helpful for special problems or left-handers, but otherwise is somewhat optional. Cursive writing transition occurs at the end of Book C. From the Publisher: Instruction Manual Designed for use with Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series Books A–G, this invaluable guide contains detailed instructions for teaching letter families, capitals, cursive joins, assessment strategies, techniques for increasing speed and developing style, plus the history of writing. Complete information provided to effectively teach italic handwriting, including scope & sequence, vocabulary, lesson management, objectives, evaluation standards and student self-evaluation. 112 pages.
