Penpals for Handwriting Series

Penpals for Handwriting is a complete handwriting scheme for 3?11 year olds. The Year 4 Penpals for Handwriting Interactive activities support direct teaching to the whole class via interactive whiteboard. In Year 4 we consolidate work on joins and begin to look at more technical aspects such as letter height and consistency. In addition, writing for different purposes is explored at this stage.
