N is for Name

This week the children will be working hard on identifying and writing their last names.  When you work on writing at home please make sure your child is using their pincher fingers to grasp the pencil and that they are starting at the top when they write their letters.  At one center today the children worked on writing their last name.  The children looked at their name.  Traced their name. Wrote their name, and then stamped their name.


At another center the children used dotters to dot the letters in their last name.  If you would like to have your child practice name writing at home I have included a link that you can use to make handwriting practice pages http://tools.atozteacherstuff.com/printable-handwriting-practice-worksheet-maker/ or may may try http://handwritingpractice.net/handwriting/index.html
