| 1 | 1 | 3.0 WRITING | 3.1 Handwriting Learners practise handwriting every week starting from copying models of shapes and progressively improving to writing dictated words and sentences neatly and legibly. Variations to this suggestion should be made by giving more complex patterns for learners who have demonstrated the competence in writing legibly. The progression to writing words and sentences should be accelerated among such learners. This is intended to take care of differentiated curriculum and learning. For those struggling handwriting, more time could be spent encouraging them to copy for clarity and legibility. | By the end of the sub strand, the learner should be able to; a) demonstrate neat and legible handwriting for effective communication, b) appreciate the importance of writing neatly and legibly for different purposes. | 1. Learners observe and copy models of well-shaped letters. Learners model spacing of letters in words and sentences. Learners write words and short sentences as modelled by the teacher from a visual display- digital or other available surfaces. Learners draw and label objects. Learners copy sentences. Learners write simple words as teacher or peer dictates Learners write sentences as a peer or teacher dictates Learners interact with and discuss samples of good and bad handwriting in groups.? | - people in the sorrounding community sit and position materials as they write. - They could be sensitized on how to sit appropriately | Approved course textbooks, realia, charts | - Observation - Oral questions - Written exercises | (Handwritten after lesson) |
