Teaching guidance

Handwriting practice should begin after tracing foundations are solid. Focus on correct letter formation, starting points, and consistent sizing. Short daily practice beats long weekly drills. Use model letters at the top of each sheet and encourage children to self-check. If frustration appears, return to tracing for a week before continuing.
