Handwriting push – this is a skill that we put aside for a while bc there was just so much drama around it. But it’s clear that he has the fine motor skills to do it! So this is our new push. We are doing at least one handwriting activity each day. The “green book” is Handwriting Without Tears pre-K, while he’s also working in Kick Start Kindergarten. My goal is to get thru 2-3 letters per week and the numerals 0-9, then start introducing lowercase printing in the fall. If he wants to start sooner, that’s fine too. . One of the best things about homeschooling is that we don’t worry about comparisons with others or adherence to a grade level standard. “Above” or “below” grade level is fairly meaningless when the actual educational goal is to get to the next step, whatever that is. . My goal for my child is not to outcompete others or get to a standardized goal faster. I know from my own school career that that’s a race to nowhere. . #homeschool #homeschooling #handwritinggoals #handwritingpractice #secularhomeschool
