Penpals for Handwriting is a complete handwriting scheme for 3-11 year-olds, covering attainment targets for the National Literacy Strategy. Teaching letter shapes and joins through stimulating and motivating activities, this scheme leads the way to fast, fluent and legible handwriting. From the beginning, the application of Fine and Gross Motor skills plays an integral part in the development of a fluent hand. Foundation 1 uses art, music, pattern and play to introduce the language and movement of letter shapes, prior to writing. * Develops both gross and fine motor skills, linking to P.E. and drama to encourage awareness of shape and space. * Audio CD with music and sounds to stimulate movement control.

* Innovative ideas templates with many varied activities to prepare pupils for handwriting * Now linked in to the Penpals for Handwriting Foundation 1 CD-ROM.
