Handwriting Without Tears Materials & Certification

Good news! I recently completed all of the prerequisite requirements for the Handwriting Without Tears (HWT) Level 1 Certification.  This certification will allow me to be registered on the HWT website as a handwriting specialist.  I am just a packet of paperwork away from being officially certified. I attended workshops about the following topics: Pre-K Readiness and Writing, K-5 Handwriting, and Handwriting Assessment.  During these workshops, I learned all about Handwriting Without Tears assessment tools, remediation approaches, and intervention ideas. Below are some pictures of all of the great materials I was able to take home with me! :-)

I also signed up to be a Handwriting Without Tears advocate, which enables me to spread the word about this awesome curriculum and provides me with access to lots of great HWT resources. Here is a link to a variety of power point presentations and in-service handouts with lots of great information on HWT: http://www.hwtears.com/advocate/introduction

I am glad that I will have the opportunity to pass along the knowledge I have gained about HWT to parents, teachers, and other occupational therapists in my area. Please message me with any questions or to share the ways in which you have used the HWT curriculum with your student(s).  I would love to hear about your experiences.
