Handwriting Resource Book

"The Handwriting Resource Book attempts to fill in the gaps in teacher training in the area of handwriting instruction.   Many teachers received little direct handwriting instruction or intervention during their own school years and very little formal instruction in the methods of teaching handwriting in their teacher training programs. These teachers now find themselves in the position of being responsible for handwriting instruction  and being accountable for their student's proficiency, or lack of it, in this skill area."
