Prepare a multimedia presentation (e.g., PowerPoint, (suggested length of five to eight slides) to help your colleagues understand how to teach handwriting more effectively at the primary and upper elementary grade levels. Your presentation should include the following: 1. Handwriting components for primary and upper elementary handwriting instruction 2. Age-appropriate handwriting activities to teach and practice handwriting 3. Three resources for colleagues about handwriting components and strategies Note: Check the quality of the resources to make sure they are ones that you would use multiple times in a classroom. List them on a separate slide. B. Develop a set of guidelines to use in selecting a handwriting teaching program.
