Foundational Handwriting Support Strategies: Occupational Therapy

So often I hear teachers, parents and therapists ask about where and how to start teaching children how to write.

We are often questioning how to fix poor letter formation habits and how to address pencil grasp issues.

This is a 26 page document which highlights the key aspects to consider when teaching a child to handwrite. For example, how to hold a pencil/pen, seating position, techniques and strategies to initiate handwriting and build upon the current skills. This document also highlights various iPad applications to support the find motor skills and handwriting development.

This is a great easy instructional document which includes numerous material and can be used by other Occupational Therpists, Speech Therapists, Teachers, Allied Health Professionals and Parents! Give your child the best start in life :)
