These handwriting practice sheets are a great addition to your distance learning packets.

More ideas students can do with these handwriting practice sheets:

• Complete the bottom portion of this worksheet to give to a neighbor or friend to let them know you are thinking about them.
• Make a mini book of the affirmations.
• On the back of the paper, write how you can apply these affirmations to your daily life.

When your students complete daily copywork, it greatly improves their muscle memory. The physical act of writing stimulates muscle memory and helps the student transfer letter formation and spelling to long-term memory. When they are doing copywork, it not only improves their handwriting, it also improves their spelling, punctuation, and reading skills. These cursive worksheets not only tick all these boxes, but also adds a huge dose of POSITIVITY to daily handwriting practice time.

I'm a former Disney graphic designer (and typography enthusiast), and I've ensured that all of my handwriting practice worksheets meet the appropriate design standards for new cursive students to create proper and successful letter stroke formations. As a graphic designer AND teacher, I've collaborated with an occupational therapist to create a QUALITY and EFFECTIVE handwriting product that meets the needs of young students and cursive writers. Many other handwriting pages out there do not meet the appropriate size, scale, spacing, and proportions needed for success in these areas. For new cursive writers, the actual design of the worksheet is as important as the content.

This cursive resource is designed in the D'Nealian style and the Handwriting Without Tears® cursive style. Another cursive student favorite is my Cursive Comedy - joke book. I also offer unique and fun cursive word searches designed to teach students to read in cursive - which is just as important as learning to write in cursive. 

This set of positive affirmations comes in a print/manuscript version for students not quite ready for cursive, but would still like to participate. And if you like this resource, you will love my special kindness handwriting activity - This kindness resource will make your students feel so good to give and receive these compliment strips. All while improving their cursive handwriting skills - this resource is definitely a win win!
