Christmas Prewriting Printables
I enjoy putting together prewriting activities for my preschooler. Earlier this year, I made the Prewriting Book Series, so I thought it would be nice to top off the collection with a Christmas Book.
This is a 59 page Christmas prewriting printable focuses on the building of fine motor skills while introducing the basic strokes of handwriting (eg. straight lines, angled lines, slanted lines, and drawing prompts.0
Furthermore, this preschool printable contains other preschool elements such as colors, patterns, matching, sizes, name writing, and more.
Christmas Prewriting Tips for Success
Ready to try some prewriting activities with your preschooler? Here are a few tips for success to get you started using this resource:
1. First of all, gently introduce strokes, and preschool concepts. While these concepts are extremely easy for us, they are completely new to toddlers and preschoolers. Start slow and make it fun.
2. Next, have your student trace the pictures then practice making the given stroke. The emphasis is not on mastery, but of developing stronger fine motor skills while introducing the strokes of handwriting. Be encouraging and celebrate the little wins.
3. Take the time to regularly review how to hold the pencil correctly, as well as, good posture in your kids. These are foundation to good handwriting.
4. Encourage, reward, have fun.
How to Assemble the Christmas Prewriting Book
You can put these prewriting pages together and make a notebook or you can print as you go. There is no right or wrong way to use this resource, just do what works best for you and your child.
Assembly Instructions:
Option #1: PRINT AND GO!
Option #2: Print, laminate covers, have bound or put into a 3-ring binder.
I printed mine front to back, laminated the covers, then had them bound at our local print shop for a couple dollars. Having this resource in book form is ideal for us, because we plan on working through it on a daily basis.
