DESCRIPTION
Do you remember learning to write your first letters? We were so young! The concentration. The careful hand movements. Thank goodness it gets easier with practice!
WHAT’S INSIDE
The writing area in this practice book is so much better than when I was a child. This handwriting practice book's design is based on the work of Else Göttgens, a Dutch Waldorf Teacher.
It has three stripes: two green and one pink. The upper and lower green stripes are each 9mm wide, as is the pink. This equals a 1” writing bar (1.06299”). The skip space is 0.25 inches.
HOW TO USE
The bottom of the pink stripe in between the two green stripes is the base line for letters. The student has to work carefully to write the upper parts of letters into the upper green stripe and the lower parts into the lower green stripe while keeping their eye on the pink baseline.
STAPLE BOUND BOOK Handwriting Only Format
In the staple-bound book, every page has the green and pink lines and so is a handwriting only format. There are 24 pages of 120g acid-free paper and each line is 9mm (9-9-9). The format is landscape. The book measures 11.69 x 8.27 inches (A4). The cover is a mint green sturdy card stock (280g), such as many pocket folders use. 9-9-9mm is equivalent to 1.06299 inches.
SPIRAL BOUND BOOK Main Lesson Book Format
In the spiral-bound version, the pages are acid-free 120 gsm (31lb.) and the pastel lined pages alternate with blank pages. There is no onion skin. This is more like a Main Lesson Book format. There are 24 pages and each line is 9mm (9-9-9). The format is landscape. The book measures 11.69 x 8.27 inches (A4). The cover is a mint green sturdy card stock (280g), such as many pocket folders use.
Recommended for and ideal for Waldorf and homeschool classrooms.
