The correct order to teach writing
letters
Occupational therapists recommend:
- Starting with uppercase
- Then doing lowercase
Why capital letters first?
- Firstly, with only two starting points to learn, it's easier and less stressful. When they move on to writing lowercase, there are a whopping 7 starting points to learn!
- It's setting them up for early success as children tend to first become able to draw straight and horizontal lines... then curved lines... and finally diagonal lines.
- Also, It's confidence building as there is less risk for letter reversal, which is common with b, d, g, and q.
It might seem weird not teaching ABC etc in alphabetical order but kids don't care about that!
Doing it developmentally makes the potentially stressful task of learning to write easier and smoother. It gives children more victories early on, allowing confidence to grow quickly!
If you want a more detailed explanation about the best order to teach writing letters the OT toolbox article is a really interesting read.
How to Help Your Child Learn to Trace!
As a former teacher and now a psychologist, I'm passionate about providing children with the highest quality and most impactful feedback.
This involves noticing and naming their:
- Effort
- Strategies
- Progress
A well chosen comment in these areas boosts motivation and encourages dynamic self-motivated learning. Even one little comment can be life changing when it's genuine and accurate.
For example, you can say...
- "Well done holding your pencil carefully" (strategy and effort)
- "You kept trying even when it was difficult! You're amazing!" (effort)
- "Look at how far you've come compared to last month" and showing them proof (Progress)
Try to praise immediately and with some enthusiasm after the desired behavior to help the child make the connection clearly. Do this consistently and you'll be amazed at the results.
