To Find out more please go to http://www.theteachersalphabet.com\nThe biggest problem people have with learning to print is that handwriting teachers don't have the time or the curriculum to teach students how to make their letters and numbers correctly the first time. Students never practice the right habits necessary to make their letters and teachers don't have enough time to oversee each of them. So our American educational system fall victim to the good enough excuse. If it looks like the letter or number they want, then it is good enough. \nWith The Teacher's Alphabet, every letter has a Letter Recipe and every stroke is included, explained, and practiced before specific letters are attempted. In this way, everyone knows what is expected and everyone can achieve and eventually teach each other. In our system, the faster to master student can effectively teach the slower students.\nThe Teacher’s Alphabet is a system of handwriting sheets that teach kids to print by sorting the upper and lower case alphabets into 11 Directional Groups (5 Upper Case and 6 Lower Case ) and teaching them through mastering 10 Foundation Exercises that help them develop shape recognition and pencil control before they practice specific groups.\nThis method greatly reduces student frustration and really helps students become excellent printers quite quickly.\nOur website show the dramatic results this method has had when teachers help their students go through the individual handwriting sheet practice pages of their workbooks (there are 7 workbooks in this system). It even works with adults who have sloppy handwriting.\n\nSee the results of this better way to teach handwriting at The Teacher's Alphabet website http://www.theteachersalphabet.com
