Handwriting Without Tears

The goal of Handwriting Without Tears is to make legible and fluent handwriting and easy and automatic skill. It uses multi-sensory techniques and consistent habits for letter formation.

The activities provide techniques to help improve a child’s self-confidence, pencil grip, and body posture. This program has been effective in many school across the country. Our staff has been trained to help our students and are ready to make it work! You will see a less “loopy” form of print and cursive. In this program, students are not introduced to cursive until third grade. For students in our school who already have legible cursive and are fluent, they will be able to keep the style that they use.

If your child is struggling with handwriting, he/she will be introduced to Handwriting Without Tears. We have purchased materials for students in grades K-5. We are excited to bring you this fun handwriting program. Our expectations for its success are high!
