Write the Numbers: A Writing Practice Workbook

Often the 5 is reversed or the 3 looks like and E. 9 can look like a P and 6 can sometimes be upside down. 2 is just plain weird and makes no sense. Numbers aren’t always easy.

Learning to Write the Number is a taught skill, just like letters. Only requires 10 minutes a day max of practice is needed. That’s it. Kids need to know where to start their numbers, where to stop them, and easy ways to form them. This is not something they can pick up by looking a worksheet or a sample. Spending a few minutes to show your child how to make the letters and a few minutes to let them practice is how writing becomes so easy they don’t even have to think about it. That’s what a solid writing foundation looks like.

Ages:  5 and up
