“Sailing through Handwriting” Series
Equip your classroom with a turnkey solution that aligns perfectly with curriculum standards, saves you planning time, and makes cursive practice engaging for every learner.
Curriculum now requires daily cursive instruction—but finding cohesive, standards-aligned materials is time-consuming. Young students struggle with letter formation, spacing, and continuity—so lessons often become worksheet schleps rather than skill builders. You need built-in assessment tools to track progress, show evidence of student growth, and meet reporting requirements.
Our Nautical Solution
By weaving a sailing analogy through each page, this workbook transforms cursive into a multisensory voyage—giving students purpose behind every stroke and freeing you from reinventing the wheel.
Before You Set Sail…
Just like preparing for a voyage, children learn to gather their equipment and read their map before they write:
1.Equipment Sailboat: sails and water → Paper, pencils, and workspace
2. Map Reading - Charting a course by tracing letters in proper spacing and lines
3. Maneuver Practice - Guiding the boat through waves → Practicing each letter
Key Features & Classroom Benefits
- Sailboat Visuals on Every Page Reinforce proper letter placement:
- Sails = b, d, f, h, i, j, k, l, t
- Boat on the waterline = a, c, e, m, n, o, r, s, u, v, w, x, z
- Fish below the line = g, j, p, q, y
- Structured Letter Practice Each worksheet focuses on one modern-style letter, a Dolch sight word, and a meaningful sentence—building fluency in writing, reading, and critical thinking.
- Meaningful Context Vocabulary appears in real-world scenarios, stretching students’ lexicons and ensuring active learning—not rote copying.
- Integrated Assessment Tools End-of-book “Postcards to the Sailors” and rubrics enable you to monitor growth, document proficiency, and celebrate milestones.
