Treasure House Handwriting is a whole-school programme designed to support children in developing a clear and fluent style of writing. Using precursive and cursive handwriting styles, the programme progresses from introducing the movements and patterns needed to form letters, through to the development of a personal style. The worksheets in this resource pack reinforce the handwriting style already learned, through sentences, spelling patterns and simple tongue-twisters and rhymes. Children are encouraged to attempt writing with their eyes closed to help fix the pattern of movements in the mind. Throughout this resource pack, children are introduced to the idea of collating a handwriting folder. Exemplar material from the worksheets can be retained by children in their handwriting folder. Useful teacher notes accompany the 47 worksheets for children.
