Genius. Pure Genius.

Who am I talking about? The people that came up with the Getty & Dubay Italic Handwriting Series. This ‘program’ is helping my son improve his handwriting without tears or frustration. It’s a little simplistic for his age, but he needed HELP, and this is ‘grown up’ enough that it’s not making him crazy. I did start with book ‘C’, which is where I would recommend starting with a child that knows how to write, but needs to improve the ‘neatness’ quotient.
And another great part? The workbooks are ONLY $8.95! A BARGAIN!

We’ve used the Italic Handwriting series ever since my daughter had so much trouble with the “ball and stick” letters of traditional printing in kindergarten. I love them, too!

Oh, I wanted to mention that you can get the Italic books for $7 from Rainbow Resource. http://www.rainbowresource.com
