Flex Handwriting
Why Choose Handwriting Coaching?
Research has shown that handwriting can influence a student’s reading, writing, language, and critical thinking skills! This program is designed to teach proper grip as well as strategies for letter formation, spacing, neatness, and cursive connections. Designed to develop both printing and cursive skills, this program provides an effective way to gain penmanship proficiency. If you think your child needs to improve legibility or neatness or simply wants to learn cursive handwriting, this program is for them.
Program Format
Crania’s Flex Handwriting program is offered year-round in a small group setting, with each student working at their own pace. Within a nurturing and encouraging environment, students engage in lessons, activities and handwriting practice. The distribution of these activities is individualized to each student’s needs. Lessons are in 55-min slots. Parents choose what day and time they would like their child to attend during our operating hours, five days a week, commencing on the half-hour. All lessons must be scheduled in advanced, but days and times can be changed from week to week. Work to practice with at home is always available and recommended. Students complete regular assessments and frequent feedback is provided to parents.
Program Features
