Product description for ?Parents
Comprising eleven pupil books and one accompanying teacher’s handbook, Schofield & Sims WriteWell is s a complete course designed to guide children from their first steps in mark-making towards the development of secure, fluent and comfortable joined handwriting that can be adapted for a range of purposes.

Handwriting is a complex process that requires the simultaneous use of cognitive, physical and perceptual skills. As development can vary greatly from child to child, Schofield & Sims WriteWell splits learning into manageable modules, offering you the flexibility to select the appropriate book for your child's needs.

an extended Introduction that provides essential background information and guidance for improving the teaching of handwriting
a Curriculum chart to explain coverage within each Stage
a detailed Scope and sequence chart that allows you to navigate the pupil books at a glance
Teacher’s notes accompanying each Stage to clarify the key issues at each level of development
comprehensive Letter formation charts and Joining charts that break down the mechanics of writing and describe in detail the steps needed to achieve the correct formation, as well as how to combat common difficulties
Assessment and Intervention resources to help you monitor progress and provide detailed feedback.
