The Big Push!

A renewed look at handwriting.

For this first half term of 2019, the whole school has a focus on handwriting. We have looked at the resources available to our children in order to make this tricky skill a little bit easier. Staff have explored all of the different elements to handwriting, including posture and grip. We have reminded our children about the Read, Write Inc mnemonics in order to help accurately form and size their letters.

Our more confident handwriters have been given the opportunity to learn more about typography and decorative lettering. This group have looked at the artistic quality of lettering and how different fonts create a variety of meanings. They are busy designing our very own Prescot Primary alphabet.
