Kindergarten Handwriting Practice…make it simple!

I am tired!  Are you tired?  With 6,000 things pulling at you at this time of the year, it is nice to have something simple!

On most mornings, my class completes these sentence work pages as their morning work. They. Are. Simple! I don’t know about you, but I need simple right now. My ABSOLUTELY least favorite subject to teach is handwriting.  So these daily handwriting practice worksheets are perfect for my kindergarten students.  They can be creative while still working on their handwriting and sentence writing.  You will find the free file at the bottom of this blog post.

Kindergarten Handwriting Practice that is creative!

Even though they are simple, I love how the students make them their own. Each morning we have an opportunity to reinforce concepts around print!  Clearly, this was Santa in his younger years… before the weight gain and white hair. We reinforce making our tall letters tall and our short letters short. We talk about punctuation!  This elf looks like I feel. I love this little elf’s face! And we talk about making sure our illustrations include a setting.At the beginning of the kindergarten, these handwriting practice pages start with a trace option.  Then we move as quickly as I can into the “write” portion.  I want students to be thinking about the path of motion as they write.  Additionally, students are not thinking about spaces or capital letters when they are just tracing lines. So, not all of the writing above is perfect.  However, we are moving in the right direction.  Because my students do not need to put energy into composing their writing (the model sentence does this for them, they can really concentrate on their letter formation. These kindergarten handwriting practice and sentence writing worksheets were one of the first things I created for TpT and I still love using them.  My class does not need any help reading the sentences and it provides a predictable activity that is meaningful that we do each morning.
