Animal Handwriting Practice

This packet focuses on handwriting practice: fun copy work and correct the letter size. This is focused on fun facts on dogs, bears and turtles. For each animal, there are 3 pages of the correct handwriting for student’s to copy. There is then 1 page of “correct the letter size” for students to copy on another sheet of paper. This is perfect for older students or students who use adaptive paper. There is then this same content spread out across 3-4 pages so students can copy each line below on to 3 line primary paper.

This is perfect for RTI / MTSS as an intervention for handwriting, letter size, copying and hand strength.This is great for visual scanning, visual perceptual skills, coordination, visual motor integration and fine motor. This is also a perfect activity for occupational therapists OT, teachers, speech pathologists SLP, special education SPED teachers and other school professionals while working on skills!

I am a school occupational therapist who has a doctorate in occupational therapy. I work closely with special education and general education staff adapting material. This is where I get my inspiration for this material. I have used my materials with a variety of children with different disabilities including learning disabilities, dyslexia, autism, sensory processing disorder, ADD, ADHD, visual impairments, deaf/hard of hearing, cerebral palsy, down syndrome and more.
