[@josselleW]

girl I’ve been looking for a review of this for months. I keep hearing everyone use it but I never knew why or what it looks like inside, thank your for this!

D’Nealian is my absolute favorite. It leads to simple cursive instead of frilly and complicated. It’s what we used to use in my old school district when I was teaching.

I purchased handwriting without tears through 3rd grade, and then found a d'nealian book at goodwill and purchased it on a whim. 100% better than hwt. Excited to see that if I purchase new it's even better! Thanks for sharing.

I didn’t know they have an online component now. Thats so cool! We have used this program since it was the old company, Scott Foresman. Savvas took it over a couple years ago and it’s a lot cuter now. ❤

This looks cute! Love that it’s in color! ❤

I finally just got mine set up! It's so good! Are you just doing 1 page a day?

[@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool]

We do one page in the actual workbook and one custom practice page ❤️

[@kitdelosreyes]

@@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool what do you have for your custom page?

[@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool]

@@kitdelosreyes I do his name, what day of the week it is, and any additional numbers or letters he had been working on in the actual notebook.

Well this makes me more excited for what I bought

Is there anything on the online portion for the student? Handwriting "games" or like where they trace and practice on the screen?

[@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool]

Honestly there could be….I haven’t logged in as a student yet to see that side of it

[@pierreabbat6157]

You had to create a username and password for your son, who's learning how to write? How old is someone typically before he can understand how to invent a good password?

[@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool]

Not sure if this is a joke….. the one I created is just for me to use to gain access to the system, he isn’t doing anything online it’s just how the portal is set up

What do you think for curriculum for a 4 years old ?

[@gatheredandgroundedhomeschool]

There are about 20 beginner pages that are just simple starting lines….it would mostly depend on your child’s hand strength and pencil grip. If they can write and hold a pencil you shouldn’t have any issues, if they are still working on that then you will want to just keep to building those writing muscles with play dough
