Description
✏️ Teach children to:
• Transition from 3-lined primary paper to standard two-line notebook paper.
• Learn several subtleties of mature handwriting using "Raise the Roof" method.
• Increase the speed of legible automatic printing with the use of a periodic alphabet race activity and charting tool.
• Use the principles of the three spaces of writing to write legibly in open spaces without lines.
• Review correct lowercase letter formations within the four letter groupings, with an emphasis on correct top-to-bottom letter formation.
• Learn how to use a conventions checklist to self-monitor legibility and use of writing conventions. This checklist is especially useful for children who need support to maintain legibility in their daily writing after they have finished Raise the Roof instruction.
✏️ Why does Raise the Roof work so well?
- Progress through the book is mostly self-guided, for independent readers.
Writing prompts are incorporated between lessons to help students generalize skills rather than just practice copying skills.
Fun cartoon characters offer handwriting tips and prompt students to self-check their work.
- Children learn to self-check through the gradual introduction of a checklist.
Children are motivated to improve their scores through the use of a self-charting, progress-monitoring system.
✏️ Included:
* Raise the Roof, 51-page workbook. Raise the Roof is ideal for third-grade to fifth-grade students.
* Teacher’s Guide with detailed Lesson Plans for 13 weeks of Instruction & Practice.

********** What Teachers, Therapists & Parents say about Raise The Roof *****
✿ LOVE this! I love how it is organized step by step to teach the letter formations! I love the graph at the end the best!
✿ This is an AMAZING resource! My student LOVED it and I appreciated the thoroughness. This is a great transition to notebook paper.
✿ Awesome resource!! This is great for my students who continue to struggle with generalizing correct letter formations into their writing, as well as practicing appropriate sizing when transitioning to notebook paper. I have been using this with my 3rd to 5th grade students in OT. This will also be good handwriting practice to send home or carryover in the classroom.
✿ This was fantastic! We work on cursive during handwriting time most of the year, but I took several weeks out to work on their print writing. It's pretty self-guided, and the students loved the timed tests to track progress!
✿ My students have enjoyed this handwriting book and I've noticed a great improvement in their handwriting since they have been using it!
✿ Such a great way to help that student who just doesn't seem to get why it is important to put the letters where they belong! Thank you!
✿ This was the perfect fix I needed for my 5th graders who struggled with legible handwriting.
✿ As a home educator, I found this a great tool to help my son who struggled with handwriting. He's now much more confident and really enjoys writing. Awesome!
✿ Print Path - another one of my go-to stores on TPT. Phenomenal resource, first year using it. I have had trouble with HWT and transitioning students to regular lined paper - this is solving that problem. Thank you!
✿ Your products are UH-AMAZING!
