Five Steps to Better Handwriting
Some kids love handwriting, but others hate when it’s time to put their pen to paper. Maybe they are worried about their handwriting. Are you one of them? 1. . Here are five steps that really work!
Get a great grasp
Try this—hold your pencil at the top and try to write your name. Pretty hard? But when you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. 2. . Hold it in place with your thumb, and your index (食指) and middle fingers.
Let the lines be your guide
Lined paper is your friend! Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and proportion (均衡). Also be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should be from the bottom line to the top one. 3. .
Slow down
If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. If you rush, it’s hard to control where you stop and start your letters.
Lower the pressure(压力)
4. That makes it harder to make the smooth lines. Try easing up and don’t hold the pencil too tightly.
5.
Lots of games require you to write or draw pictures. So even though it’s not schoolwork, you’re still using the skills you need to control your pen better.
A. Ask for more advice
B. Play games
C. You’ve been writing since you were a little kid
D. Some kids press down really hard when they write.
E. So “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”.
F. The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest next to the base of your thumb.
G. The good news is that just about everyone can improve their handwriting.
