Year 1 and 2 have been so enthusiastic to learn our new handwriting! We are using a 'continuous cursive' style which means they are learning to form letters in a way that will help them join up letters in the future - when they are ready.

We started our journey with lots of fine motor skill activities and careful mark-making activities before exploring our first family of letters - 'curly caterpillar letters'...

The children love forming them in the air, on whiteboards, using pencils, pens, chalks: they are doing an amazing job! Well done Year 1 and 2!
