We looked at the handwriting statement on our writing rubric and focussed on the wording of it, ‘using horizontal lines to develop joined handwriting’. The children reflected and compared their own handwriting against this statement and we made a pledge.
We discussed where our letters should be sitting on the lines in our books, looking at ascenders and descenders and then used the interactive Letter-join videos to practice writing the letters correctly using the horizontal lines.
We then practised writing some new key words that we’ve been introduced this week from our music case study (CS3). The children were incredibly focussed throughout the task and produced the most stunning handwriting, all using those horizontal lines ready to join.
I’m proud of you all but I could also see how proud you were of yourselves and the beautiful work that you had produced. I now challenge you to produce this on every piece of learning in your books! I know you can do it! ⭐️
