Pre-Printing Drawing

The Pre-Printing Drawing workbook is helping kids to build solid foundation of forming letters. It teaches all the strokes necessary for printing letters in a fun way of drawing, the natural way of learning pencil control at early age. This workbook is developmentally-appropriate as a pre-printing practice for children ages 4 to 6. (Preschool, Pre-K, Transitional Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and 1st grade). It is a great starting point for preschoolers, but also a good practice for First Graders. All the activity pages help children strengthen their fine motor skills, improve hand/eye coordination and pencil control, and essentially, lead to handwriting. Letters are constructed out of various strokes. Each finish-the-picture page is designed to focus on certain stroke separately. It is repeated multiple times on one page, or even pages to get sufficient practice. The children draw missing parts of the pictures using the same strokes that are used when printing letters. After the missing parts are filled in, they can color the picture as any coloring page. The strokes get more complicated as the children progress in the book. At the end of the book, the children will be able to print all of the upper case and the lower case letters of the alphabet. Pencil or thin colored pencils are preferred for these activities, because they support proper pencil grip and control. Contains 51 finish-the-picture pages and 9 alphabet practice pages.
