Teaching Order | Handwriting Without Tears The Handwriting Without Tears® developmental teaching order helps children master handwriting skills in the easiest, most efficient way. As a result, children can transition quickly from learning the mechanics of handwriting to focusing on content and meaning—in all subjects. We teach printing first. After printing is mastered, we add the cursive connections. Capital Teaching Order Developmentally, capitals are easier so we teach them first. Lowercase Teaching Order We teach lowercase c, o, s, v, and w first because they are exactly the same as their capital partners, only smaller. Lowercase Cursive Teaching Order In cursive, we teach lowercase letters first to help children learn cursive skills in the easiest, most efficient way. Capital Cursive Teaching Order Capitals are taught after lowercase letters because of their infrequent use and complex formations.

Time & ToDo Planner Coloring Panda - Best Coloring Pages Online Miss D the Teacher Where Can I Get A Teacher Planner? | Top Notch Teaching For some of us teachers it’s back to school time and that means it’s time for a new teacher planner. Have you got yours yet? Or maybe you don’t need one just yet, but you’re having a browse around because what you have had in the past hasn’t been quite right. Well I’ve never been happy with the planners I’ve had, so I’m always looking for the new latest and greatest. So I’ve compiled some of the best teacher planners that I’ve found. Life planners Because my needs are different, I’ve decided to move away from a traditional teacher planner to more of a life planner that can also cater for my very busy social life. Next, I tried a planner I found for free online. Now I’ve moved on to an Erin Condren Life Planner, which I’ve had for about 6 months.
