Synopsis
Excerpt from The Teaching of Handwriting
Tradition has dominated the teaching of hand writing as it has no other school study. It has been the last of the so-called formal subjects to be influenced by the newer educational thought. Aside from the notable but temporary contro versy as to vertical or slant writing, the ped agogy of penmanship has scarcely been an im portant concern in educational discussion. Not until quite recently have we really had any im portant professional publications upon the sub ject. The result has been a tardy development of economical and efficient methods of teaching children to write.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This exhaustive examination of the psychology, physiology, hygiene, and pedagogy of handwriting studies a skill that is both ubiquitous in everyday life and yet learned through a complex and multifaceted process. This book goes beyond the technicalities of teaching legible penmanship to analyze the deeper mental and physiological processes involved in developing writing as a form of expression. The author argues that the writing habit is not instinctive, but a learned coordination of sensory, motor, and linguistic activity, a coordination perfected through practice and honed in accordance with the unique developmental trajectory of each student. The book includes practical advice for teachers on how to assess writing habits and how to foster age-appropriate writing habits to optimize motor skill, language comprehension, and posture. It also discusses proper desk and paper positioning to prevent vision problems, a topic that has been the subject of much debate and controversy, without definitive resolution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331238621_0
