Targeting Handwriting NSW Student Book Year 6

The Targeting Handwriting NSW Year 6 Student Book focuses on developing students' own styles, while maintaining a general emphasis on fluency and legibility. The book includes:
- some useful alternative letter shapes and joins
- more 'mature' real-world applications of handwriting, eg. developing a signature and tips for note taking
- teaching pages with two sets of copying lines, for reinforcement and extra practice
- a section on calligraphy

Handwriting is one of the most crucial skills students will develop in primary school. Targeting Handwriting covers the handwriting curriculum in a clear and structured way, with content directly linked to NSW syllabus outcomes.

Writing is a vital, compelling form of communication. Children need to write every day, for a variety of purposes and for a variety of audiences. To be competent writers, their handwriting needs to be fluent and legible. The teaching of handwriting is an essential part of the writing curriculum.
