Handwriting/Manuscript
Basic strokes will be reviewed as we write manuscript letters Uu, Ss, Bb, Pp, Rr, Nn
We are taking the time to write our letters the correct size. Are they midline letters or headline letters? Be sure capital letters are taller than (most) lowercase letters.
Keys to legibility are size, shape, spacing and slant! Handwriting is important and strengthens our fine motor skills! Neatness counts!

What is prayer? Words to help guide us as we pray include praise, thank, sorry, please . Our “Prayer Leader” will keep these words in mind as he/she leads us in prayer each morning.
Prayer Box project- students continue to add prayers daily if they know of someone who might be in need of a prayer.
