ReWriters

This is a product I made and sold on Amazon from 2010-2015.
Offering here now as free download, donationware if you find it useful!



WHAT IS THIS?

ReWriters are printable sheets for handwriting practice by tracing over the dotted and dashed letters next to visual references. While practicing handwriting and penmanship, writers will also learn things like:
  • Practice writing block letters and cursive letters
  • Learn the names of adorable baby animals
  • Learn to recognize trees by the shape of their leaves
  • Learn to recognize animal shapes by their silhouettes
  • Learn to recognize the flags of USA states
  • Learn the basic alphabet of ASL (American Sign Language)
  • Learn to count fingers
  • Basic math, addition
  • Practice writing numbers from 1 to 100
  • Learning the names of animals in English for ESL students (ESL = English as a Second Language)

I named them ReWriters because when I was producing the physical product I would print the pages on heavy cardstock and laminate them, which enables one to use them like a dry erase lap board. You could simply wipe them off to write on them again.



WHO ARE THEY FOR?
  • For beginner students that are just learning their ABC's and how to write numbers and letters in block letters and cursive script.
  • For intermediate students who are ready for more advanced concepts
  • For Occupational Therapists who are retraining adult patients to handwrite again through structured programs that include specific exercises to improve motor skills, strength, and coordination. Therapy may involve relearning basic movements, using tools like pencils and tracing guides, and practicing handwriting-specific tasks, often with exercises that can be done as homework to reinforce learning.
  • Homeschooling parents for use at home
  • Traditional Teachers for use in the classroom
  • Self-motivated students
  • Parents, babysitters and nannies to provide fun and educational activities


HOW TO USE

Just print the pages and have the student trace over the dashed letters and numbers for writing practice.

You can also print and laminate the sheets to use as a DIY dry erase board. After laminating, you can trace over the letters with these options:

1. Dry Erase Markers or Dry Erase Crayons. To clean, simply wipe off with a dry paper towel, cotton cloth, felt pad or eraser made for dry-erase boards.

2. Sharpies or other brands of Permanent Markers in that case wipe the laminated sheet clean with a towel that has been wet with rubbing alcohol (90% or 70% Isopropyl Alcohol).

3. Wet Erase markers which can be wiped off with a damp cloth that has been wet with water.

Tips:
- to use as a sturdy lapboard for car trips and travel, print the pages on card stock and laminate them with thermal laminating sheets, 3mil or 5mil work best.


WHERE TO BUY THERMAL LAMINATING SHEETS?

Walmart, Amazon, Office Depot/Max, Staples, eBay, etc.
