Handwriting is an important part of every child’s development. Handwriting begins with scribbling and progresses to forming lines into shapes, creating pictures and forming letters. The letters then transform into words, which become sentences. Today, children are expected to develop handwriting skills before they enter Kindergarten. We will be teaching the Handwriting Without Tears® program, developed by Jan Olsen, an occupational therapist, which uses a child’s visual skills and provides them with the necessary handwriting skills to be successful in school. Using art, music and songs, this program will help enhance your child’s fine motor skills and core.

Sessions will be held at the Key Elementary School Campus (5001 Dana Place, NW, Washington, DC). Download our brochure here.
