http://academy.alicenine.net



COURSE MATERIALS

Student supplies: lined paper, regular pencil, 2 light colored pencils

Resources are option. A student can effectively complete this course with just paper and pencil.

The clock face diagrams and letter cards can be used by students to imitate what Alice Nine does during the lesson.

Special notebook pages created by Alice Nine can be printed for student use instead of a composition or spiral notebook. These pages were especially created for the student who has difficulty forming his/her printed (manuscript) letters or difficulty positioning letters on the base line or difficulty forming letters proportionately. This notebook can also benefit the student who does not process the formation of his/her letters correctly, i.e., starts the letter o on the baseline.

The line-spacing on these notebook pages is slightly wider than wide-ruled notebook paper. The font used was designed by Alice Nine to give the feel of hand-printed letters.

In lessons 1-5, the letters gradually fade so there is a gradual release of support until the student is forming cursive letters without the backdrop of printed letters.

Using a clock in your classroom

, identify the four points, 2, 4, 8, and 10. These w

ill be used as reference points during letter fo

rmation. Som

e teachers highlight these positions on the glass of their classroom

clock. Some teachers m

ake a large circle w

ith the four points and practi

ce tracking the circle with a m

agnet, m

arkers, or crayons. Others m

ake a large circle on the floor or concrete for students to w

alk out the clock-face points. The illustrations below

The kindergarten Lesson Planner has black line masters for these positions,

The clock-face

circle is positioned between the base line and the broken m

lower case let

For the letter f, it will be above the m

id-line. The only two points used are 2 and 10.

For letters with a

descending line, a cloc

is positioned below

the baseline. N
