Do you feel overwhelmed with handwriting clients?

Do you know what to look for in your observations?

Do you need help organising your observations and recommendations?

 

The Building Functional Handwriting Checklist is an informal assessment tool to observe and make recommendations for a child’s handwriting development.

 

This tool aims to gather comprehensive information for functional handwriting, including information on  child’s motor skills, pre-writing development, and handwriting proficiency. The checklist allows you to gather valuable information to support targeted intervention strategies. With clear structured sections, it can capture a child’s unique needs, aiding in development of personalised therapy.

 

There is a section to add the child’s preferred font and formation of letters, respecting their choice, control, and learning style.  

 

Use the Building Functional Handwriting Checklist to begin enhancing your practice and help children build functional handwriting.
