The NAPPS Nursery 2 Handwriting scheme of work is a structured program aimed at laying a strong foundation for writing proficiency in young learners. This curriculum includes the following key topics: letter formation, tracing and copying, basic strokes and patterns, letter writing, etc
With this subject, children will learn how to write both upper and lower-case letters, numbers, shapes, and patterns. They will gradually move on to write simple sentences.
The main aim of the Handwriting subject is to:
i. Equip children with the skills necessary for clear and legible writing.
ii. Ensure that children develop the confidence and ability to express themselves in written form.
Good handwriting skills are necessary for effective communication and will help students perform better in other subjects. This is a must-teach for all nursery 2 children
