Tiffany's Thursday Tip


Size matters….in handwriting! (I don’t know where you thought I was going with that. J) One of the most challenging tasks for my handwriting students is remembering appropriate letter size and placement. I recently came across a cool resource that can be used at home or in the classroom. The Magnetic Rectasquare Board is essentially a magnetic wipe-off board that comes with several pink, yellow and blue magnets of various sizes. Students can write letters on the appropriately sized squares. This can be used to help with handwriting, spelling and vocabulary.

Happy Easter !!!

Happy Easter!!! During my therapy sessions yesterday, my clients enjoyed hunting for eggs with words in them and I enjoyed watching them demonstrate proper letter formation while writing super silly sentences.
