ImMeeMee,

My kid handwriting also horrible. He is like one year behind his peers. Now only start to do tracing while kids in his K1 already write in simple sentences.

But we are trying to get him to write whenever we are free at home. Lucky thing is he also likes doing his worksheets. So just keep letting him practice practice and practice!

Good that your child likes worksheets, that is already a good start. mine doesnt fancy them much, and i can only do a bit at a time, so progress is not that fast. :sad:

good for you desertwind. right now i am also coaching dd3 on K1 worksheets. she is delayed in her fine motor skills and so far can only write her name in a fairly legible manner, tracing is not quite there, and coloring is relatively ok but she has the tendency to scribble ... so still a lot more work here ...

how is yours coming along?

My boy was also writing only words while his classmates could copy the whole poem at k1. The teacher didn't even bother putting it in his folder coz he couldn't do. If she didn't show me the other kids' work, I wouldn't even know. But he is now managing. Ugly and slow handwriting. But getting there.

So don't worry. By p1, your boy will be able to write full sentences. Maybe not perfect penmanship and slow, but legible.

Hi ImMeeMee,

My boy is speech-delay. He is only beginning to say more words now and increasing his vocabulary. As for writing, he can write reasonably legibly A-Z (big and small), numbers etc. Most times we make him write on dotted lines but recently ask him to copy some words by himself. He can write his own name but if he rushes through his writing can be quite bad! I am using the series of Kumon books to do with him and also his weekly tuition got quite a lot of homework worksheets to do as well. I think he enjoy most is learning by playing and handson using wall charts, toys, \"fishing\" exercises etc. He also learns by watching DVDs.

U can make your own edible playdoh. It’s just flour, oil and colouring. Eat also never mind.

the coloring contain chemicals - to make it colorful.

you do not know where the source of chemical come from ?
it may come from China.

chemical is harmful.
please don’t let yet child eat !

if your child eat -
once harmful chemical enters blood stream, it may cause brain damage or vital organs damage. Irreversible !

Then use natural coloring lor. Beet root makes red, the blue flower nyonyas use for the kueh makes blue etc
