Where to Start

We designed our program to be simple for you to use at home. Use your teacher’s guide to become familiar with the program. In it are letter and lesson teaching strategies for each page of the workbook. Lessons for effective teaching are clear and simple to follow. At the back of the guide are some suggested guidelines for what to teach each day and week.

It’s okay if you are not a teacher or educator. Our teacher’s guides are for any adults in a child’s life who are concerned and willing to work on handwriting.

Do the suggested step-by-step demonstrations, move at your child’s appropriate pace, and allow for review and mastery of skills to help your child develop good handwriting habits and become a proficient writer. Consistency is important. Devote a small amount of time each day—15 minutes—to handwriting and you will see positive results.

Why it Works

Handwriting Without Tears® is a proven success in making legible and fluent handwriting an easy and automatic skill for all students.

“The workbooks are uncluttered and easier for children to use.”
