Following assignment 3, I have been asked to share some resources that I have used to help children with their hand writing. The first are some printable resources from http://www.senteacher.org/Home/ This site has lots of resources specifically for children with special needs. The handwriting printables can be found on the 'Print Literacy' tab.
The other resource is something called 'Roll n Write'. It is made by LDA and can be found using Google. The resource is a set of the 26 letters of the alphabet. They are made of plastic in such a way as when a ball bearing is placed on the correct starting place the ball rolls in the same way as the letter would be formed. The children I have used this with have been amazed when just a gentle push sends the bearing on its way. The children can also use their finger to follow the route of the ball, which gives them a kinesthetic approach to writing.
