Printing Practice Handwriting Workbook for Boys Paperback – 22 June 2014

Perfect for practicing printing.

What on earth? I bought this by mistake...makes me cringe

My very reluctant writer was excited by the word and phrases like “boys only” and “code name”. He was even inspired to write more details like his secret password.

This book was exactly what I was looking for for my 7 year old son (2nd grade). It is very straightforward and doesn't waste time with teaching the alphabet. We homeschool and he wanted to start cursive this year, so I thought we should practice his printing the first 3/4 of the year and then move on to cursive towards the end. My son is an excellent reader, so writing these words was not difficult for him - he knew how to read them so it was really fun to see all the different "boy-type" words. He was very excited to get the the sentences! The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the proportions of some of their letters because of the font they use. The lower case "t", for example, is shorter than the other high-back letters like "h" - causing my son to write a lower case "t" smaller than he should be. I explained it to him, so he writes it correctly despite what he sees on the page. Other than that, I'm very happy with this book!

My son needed some extra handwriting practice outside of school so I purchased this for him. It not only shows how to correctly form letters but it’s helping him with spelling words too. Would highly recommend!!
