Product description

    REVISE BEGINNER’S ALPHABET AND INTRODUCE MODERN CURSIVE

    A Seamless Transition to Cursive Mastery
    The Targeting Handwriting QLD Year 2 Student Book by Jane Pinsker and Susan Young serves as a vital bridge in the Queensland curriculum. As students move from the Beginner’s Alphabet toward Modern Cursive, this workbook provides the structured practise needed to maintain legibility while building speed. By introducing the nuances of cursive entries and exits, this book helps students:

    • Master the Queensland Modern Cursive Alphabet: Learn the specific mechanics of cursive, including rounded and pointed entries, and identify which letters change (like 'f' and 'z') and which remain the same.
    • Reinforce Foundational Skills: Revisit the Queensland Beginner’s Alphabet through tracking and tracing exercises to ensure a solid baseline before progressing.
    • Develop Independent Writing Control: Transition from guided tracking to independent writing, supported by clear starting points and directional arrows.
    • Apply Skills to Real-World Tasks: Practise capitals, numerals, number words, and punctuation within the context of simple sentences.

    With an emphasis on handwriting as a compelling form of daily communication, this workbook ensures Year 2 students develop the fluency required to become competent and confident writers.

    This Year 2 edition features:

    • Introduction to Joining: A gentle first look at how letters connect, preparing students for the more complex joins introduced in Year 3.
    • Comprehensive Patterning: Creative patterning exercises that strengthen the fine motor movements required for fluid cursive entries and exits.
    • Integrated Literacy and Numeracy: Handwriting tasks that incorporate essential spelling and number work, making practise meaningful across the curriculum.
    • Syllabus-Aligned Progression: A clear, methodical approach designed to meet the specific requirements of the Queensland writing curriculum.

    The Targeting Handwriting series remains the most trusted resource for Queensland educators, providing a thorough grounding in all the vital skills needed for legible, fluent script.
