Focus:
Writing
Strokes and
Own Name Teaching Materials
Independent
Practice
Objective: Allow students to practice tracing their names using writing
strokes with high levels of independence as they strive for mastery. In
addition, bolster writing readiness with fine motor activities.
Practicing and Extending Skills by Practicing Own Name: Provide students
with a page inside a clear plastic sleeve that has their name printed four to
six times (depending on the length of the name). Also supply a dry erase
marker and eraser (tissue, sock, or cloth). Ask students to trace their name
on every line and then put a star next to their best one to show you.
Practicing and Extending Skills by Applying Writing Strokes: Revisit
previously taught activities aligned with the writing stroke(s) or shape(s)
taught in the lesson.
Refining Fine Motor Skills: Engage in an activity that promotes fine motor
strength and skill. (See Fine Motor Activities for suggestions. These activities
should be previously taught and practiced before students are expected to
engage with them independently.)
