In a very large public school district, I teach at a Title One elementary school of about 1000 students who come from different socioeconomic and culturally diverse backgrounds. My 25 kindergarten students come to school everyday with an "I can!" attitude. They are hardworking, energetic 5 year old children who are excited to "show what they know!". They speak English, Spanish, Portuguese, Hebrew, Armenian, Farsi and most come from immigrant families. With a varied level of abilities, special needs, and literacy backgrounds, one thing that they do all have in common is their eagerness to become "writers." Kindergarten students find great pride and accomplishment in their ability to write their own names. Imagine how they must feel when they become "authors and illustrators" in their own eyes and those of their peers, parents and teacher! The first step toward that goal is the foundation of good penmanship. They need to learn how to write letters and words with proper form and spacing.
