Zaner-Bloser Handwriting

Book excerpt: "Handwriting is proven to develop fine motor skills and eye-hand connection, strengthening the ability to translate ideas into words. In fact, it equips students to write and read more efficiently than reading and instruction alone. So when it comes time to assess students' yearly progress, it's not just about reading (or math, or science). It's about preparing confident communicators equipped with cross-disciplinary skills that translate directly to demonstrating proficiency on standardized tests. Zaner-Bloser Handwriting has been carefully designed to support the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) standards for handwriting. References to the TEKS appear throughout the Student and Teacher Editions."--Page v.
