"The Complete Cursive Handwriting Workbook for Kids: Laugh, Learn, and Practice the Alphabet with Silly Jokes" is a beautifully simple concept: Help children develop their writing skills and teach them silly jokes that they can share with others. Author Crystal Radke has created an easy to use handwriting guide with ruled pages featuring alphabet letters and words in cursive. The teaching is progressive from just letters, then to simple words, and finally to short sentences. At the top of each letters-only page, there is a word that begins with the designated letter, from "Apple starts with A" all the way through "Zebra starts with Z". On the words-only pages there is a cute illustration that matches the first letter of the word, like "B for Bat", "O for Octopus", and "Q for Quilt". The sentences are jokes and answers to jokes. At the very end of the book, there is a "Certificate of Completion" to award as recognition for learning how to write in cursive. Younger children who are not quite ready for writing will enjoy learning to sound out the letters and match them to the pictures.
I received a copy of this book for preview from the publisher. I am sad hat a lot of schools have opted out of teaching cursive. That being said, this books makes learning cursive available to all, especially those that do not feel good they have the patience to sit down to teach. This is quite the fun book. I love that they made learning fun for the kids. They practice writing each of the letter then creating words. They follow that up with finishing jokes and then practice writing out the whole joke. The book literally takes you from a-z, beginning to end. When they finish this book, writing in cursive should be easy. I highly recommend this book for homeschoolers and parents whose children are not being taught this in public schools.
The Complete Cursive Handwriting Workbook for Kids
This Cursive Handwriting Workbook makes pursuing perfect penmanship fun! I remember doing the Penmanship Exercises and having to pass certain benchmarks back in school. This workbook has pages complete with the dotted middle lines to help place your loops and get good ratios.
Then there are pages with words and games and silly jokes to practice and make these Cursive exercises fun and engaging. So much better than what I had as a kid.
Highly recommend. Get your kid handwriting and engaging more neuropathways in your kids’ brains than texting alone one letter at a time ever can.
I receive a copy of this fun workbook from the Publisher for an honest review.
Besides the usual A-Z, you can trace words and practice writing sentences in cursive. The sentences are at grade school level. The selection provides an opportunity to increase the grade schooler's vocabulary.
