Handwriting Lesson Plans for teachers
- for right and left-handed children

Anything Left-Handed are pleased to have been involved with educational supplier Stabilo in the development of an excellent new Key Stage 2 Handwriting Resource Pack. Written in conjunction with the National Handwriting Association, we have created 7 lesson plans tailored to meet the National Literacy Standards for handwriting, and have included plans specifically for left-handed writers.

The pack includes information and lesson plans for the following subjects:

1. Why is handwriting important?
2. What does your handwriting say about you
3. Different writing styles
4. Are you a leftie or a rightie?
5. How neat is your handwriting?
6. Size and spacing
7. Developing speed

If you are interested in helping left handed children with writing, we are sure you will find our video on this very helpful -
