HELP, Please!
Slowly, but surely, everyone is settling into the kindergarten routine. There are 19 students in our class and several times during the day they need to put their name on a paper or project. This is where I need your help -- Please help your child practice writing their first name. The first letter should be a capital and the rest of the letters should be lowercase. Remember it is important they hold their pencil using the right grip (three finger pinch at the bottom) and that they start their letters at the top (not the bottom). If we can work together to teach them to correctly hold their pencil and form letters it will pay off big time later on when they have to write a lot and have it legible.
