Description:
Penmanship lessons that feel like play for kids ages 6-9.
Printing neatly takes practice, but it can be hard to keep children engaged with ordinary writing drills. This innovative penmanship workbook teaches children proper penmanship as they read and copy words that are all about animals. With colorful illustrations and fun facts about mammals, fish, reptiles, birds, and bugs, each writing lesson feels like a romp through the animal kingdom!
A perfect choice for kids' summer activities, kids will build skills as they go, beginning with tracing the alphabet and working up to printing full sentences. Each exercise uncovers new knowledge, like "an elephant's tusks never stop growing" and "there are more kangaroos than humans in Australia." Its layout works as a perfect summer workbook for practice between school years, while the pictures to color offer an opportunity to get creative in between writing lessons. A Before and After page even highlights progress, showing kids how much their penmanship has improved.
Go beyond traditional, repetitive exercises with a summer learning workbook that makes handwriting wildly entertaining!
