How does the THRASS
programme
deal with handwriting? |
In THRASS, Letter Formation is Stage 3 (of ten
stages). In the teaching guide, T-50 TEACHING THRASS, the guidance text and
pictures can be found on pages 38-43 (six pages of large A3). Generally
speaking, handwriting is used to reinforce the learning of the phonemes (sounds)
and graphemes (spelling choices) of English.
There is a good section on page 40, headed THREE FORMS OF WRITING, where it is
stated that, "Learners should be able to write printed lower-case letters,
printed capital letters and they should be able, when appropriate, to overwrite
the same printed lower-case letters to produce a joined script (cursive)."
