Make a handwriting book that is All About Me
Make a cover using cardboard - cover it with duct tape, construction paper, scraps of wallpaper, etc. Don't forget to make a back cover as well. Let the kids decorate using the title "My Handwriting Book All About Me" or something to that effect. Use binder rings so you can add to the book as the year progresses.
And then and here's the cool part go to this website: http://www.writingwizard.longcountdown.com/handwriting_practice_worksheet_maker.html
and with the help of your kid(s) make up writing sheets to fill up the inside of the book for daily practice. Our book starts with my son's full name, his address, who lives in his home, his animals, his friends, favorite things, etc. This may also be done using other topics to connect with curriculum/classes.
