How to Use the Printables

First teach your child how to draw the letters before allowing her to practice. Your child should trace all dashed letters and in any blank spaces, she should attempt to write the letter on her own. You should observe your child to make certain that she is doing it right. If today's writing lesson is made of letters that have already been taught then observe and teach if needed.

The Colors

Orange

warm up exercises
The handwriting printables that introduce a new letter will have warm-up exercises. The printables with the warm-ups are easy to spot because I have highlighted the links in orange. The other printables do not have warm-up exercises.

Blue

Lesson 36 Advanced
Some of the lessons have two printables to go with it. One of the printables has the abbreviation -adv following the lesson number. The handwriting lessons that are marked with -adv have word writing practice and the focus is primarily on spacing words. The advanced handwriting exercises are optional. I included them because my daughter wanted to write words when she was learning to read with '100 Easy Lessons.
