Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series: Book B
Getty-Dubay Italic Handwriting Series: Book B introduces words and sentences, as well as lowercase and capital print script. This workbook features one letter per page, with short words to reinforce the letter in context. Each page includes tracing models, writing exercises, and related drawing activities. The author designed this book for beginning readers and writers in 1st grade.
Simple, step-by-step instruction makes this handwriting series a favorite of many homeschoolers. The italic aspect of this program eliminates the loops and awkward squiggles of “regular” cursive writing, while maintaining a clear, elegant appearance to handwriting.
One word of warning! Be certain your child sees the difference between loopy cursive and italic cursive. One mother was disappointed that her children could not read a letter from their grandma, because it was written in loopy cursive. The children were only familiar with italic handwriting.
This item is consumable. You will need one per student.
We recommend this book for 1st Grade.
