Upper and Lower Case Letters

We are working on letter formation. It is important to remember where each letter is on the line. We use 'Ground, Grass, Sky' to help us remember where to put our letters. This is part of Jolly Grammar work in 1st and 2nd class.

Letter Writing Homework

A yellow sheet with alphabet was sent home last week with all Junior and Senior Infants. This is to be used at home when doing letter writing. The red dot shows where to start. Only lower case 'f', 'k', 't', 'x' have a second colour dot. This is to show that the child lifts the pencil for these letters. Lower case 'i' and 'j' just need dots.
Junior Infants are learning to write their names and the guide sheet will prevent any 'bad habits' with letter formation.
