This workbook, Print Wacky Sentences , is designed to inspire interest in print handwriting. This workbook focuses on writing complete sentences in print. Kids enjoy printing wacky sentences like, " Two rabbits slept on a fox's head ," and, " Six elephants jumped over a giraffe ." Exercises like these help to make learning fun, even at home. Three sections of this workbook help students develop their print handwriting skills at a variety of levels: Part 1 is for beginning writers who have practiced individual letter and words, and who are ready to move onto complete sentences. Students practice handwriting motions by tracing dotted sentences. Part 2 advances to help students begin to write on their own. In this section, students first trace a dotted sentence and then copy the sentence onto a new line. The three traditional horizontal lines are included as a guide - solid top and bottom lines plus a dashed middle line help students master the relative heights of the letters, and to write across the page in straight lines. Part 3 gives solid sentences instead of dotted sentences. At this stage, students practice their handwriting without first tracing the letters. Beginners may wish to start out with a more basic book that offers practice with individual letters before advancing to complete sentences, such as the Print Uppercase and Lowercase Letters, Words, and Silly Phrases . May your students or children improve their handwriting skills and enjoy reading and writing these wacky sentences. Review: Great product for improving writing skills and developing sentence structure!!!!!! - I absolute love this book for my seven year old son. Little boys are known for there terrible handwriting, not to mention there hate for it. My sons handwriting was causing him to loose points at school on tests, even though the answers were correct he lost points for sloppiness. For instance his O would look like an A and he would be deducted points, or for not even using a period. This book has been fun for the both of us, the sentences are not that funny, some are, however it has improved his writing skills. I give him a box of different markers and crayons and let him make rainbow words or match the color with the feel of the sentence. I recommend this to anyone who has issues with there child's handwriting. It has also helped him develop better sentence structure on his own, which is amazing! Review: Writing made fun! - My daughter has struggled to get excited about school and finds writing "boring". However this book is great! The silly sentences make writing fun and funny! The first section of writing includes pages for tracing the sentences, then graduates to tracing and copying, eventually moving to just copying.

Good to practice hand writing
I think I could print my own pages for my 6 year old child to practice, but this is a good book. He likes the sentences and it’s good motivation to practice his handwriting. I think it’s great for 1st - 2nd grade

So glad I bought this
I got this for my 5 year old, whom is homeschooled and hates handwriting. I was hoping this would encourage him to write and he could laugh at the wacky sentences when doing it. We do one page a day and he loves reading them to me. He's loved some of them so much he's read them to his dad when he gets home also. At first he complained about having extra handwriting to do every day but now he loves it. I definitely recommend this for parents who's kids are reluctant handwriters and can read at at least a 1st to 2nd grade level. I do have to explain some of the jokes to my son since he is so young but that doesn't take the enjoyment out of it for him.

Funny and Educational
My 8 year-old finished up 2nd grade and the one thing he really needed to work on academically was his writing. I purchased this for him to work on over the summer. He got a total kick out of the silly sentences and it has helped his handwriting. I do wish that it was printed a little smaller. He needs to learn to make his letters properly but also smaller. We'll keep using it through 3rd grade until we run out of pages.

Great even for my 12 year old
I bought this for my 12 year old son to improve his horrendous handwriting. The sentences are kind of dumb, but still funny enough to keep him a bit entertained. The silly sentences are more a way to keep him from being totally miserable than a form of fun. I love that the pages start out with full tracing, then change to part tracing, part copying later on. I would definitely order this again.

Easy to trace
My son loves tracing the sentences. They are not silly more so stupid you laugh. I was not a fan for tracing for handwriting but for him it helps take the battle out of it and he is practicing.

This book is so fun. I bought it for my brother in the hopes that it would help his handwriting. The sentences are definitely wacky and fun for the kids to read. It's a good book to practice tracing letters while not simply repeating the same letters over and over.

awesome resource for Grade 1s and 2s
This is a great resource for a grade 1 and 2s. The section for great 1s is tracing the sentence, the part for grade 2s is rewriting the sentence. It’s a way for kids to practice penmanship and reading. We do one sentence everyday. We take the longer words of the sentences and make those vocal words for the week.
