Practice with our names

Practicing our names happens every day in a variety of ways.  Dotting with q tips, rainbow writing, dry erase and many more ways to come. 

How can you help your child be successful writing their name?  

  • Praise their attempt
  • Use play dough to roll out the pieces to make letters for their name
  • Write in shaving cream on your table (this is a great cleaning tool too)
  • Have your child sign their own name on art work, cards, letters, and where ever else they can.  
  • Write on the windows with dry erase markers
  • Use a cookie sheet and cover the bottom with rice, have students write their names in rice
  • Write their name in glue, shake sand over it. Let dry and allow child to trace with their finger, put under a piece of paper and have the child to make a rubbing of their name
