Description

Explicit handwriting instruction builds confident readers and writers.

Handwriting is one of the fundamental building blocks of communication and literacy skills development. The ability to handwrite effectively with automaticity and fluency supports students to remember, process, store and retrieve information.

Fluency in transcription skills, such as handwriting and keyboarding, enables students to focus their thinking on the composing aspects of writing. Thus, over a period of time, students move from learning to write to writing to learn.

Oxford Handwriting for Queensland ensures that students acquire handwriting skills in a logical order, from simple to complex, with frequent opportunities to practise both new and previously learnt skills and concepts. This series uses the Queensland Beginner's Alphabet font.

In Years 1 and 2, letters are grouped by shape, and the letters are introduced within words and phrases that are decodable.
