Our Learning

Handwriting

In Year 1 the children begin to learn how to write in pre-cursive handwriting.

What is pre-cursive handwriting?

Pre-cursive handwriting is the transition between printing (unjoined) letters and joining all letters in cursive handwriting. In pre cursive handwriting, children practise adding lead-ins and lead-outs to letters, which then ensures the letters start and finish in the correct place for writing to be joined. At Primet we have high expectations for all children and therefore expect every pupil to have a go at writing in this way. Please see the 'handwriting' tab for precursive handwriting practise sheets. 

Please see links below for handwriting activities.
