My ds is about to go into year 5 and his writing isn't great. It's not exactly awful but could definitely stand improvement. He also has a tendency to revert to non joined up writing as he finds he is neater. At parents evening a week ago the year 5 teacher said that the most important thing children could do over the summer is practice times tables and handwriting. Does anyone have any ideas as to ways to engage ds and make it less of a chore? Also, any idea how to encourage him to find his own style? I noticed a couple of examples in his class that looked great.
I would ideally like him to do a little every day and short of copying out sections of Minecraft books I am clueless! All ideas gratefully received, thanks!
