On the Road to Handwriting Success

A Resource Guide for Therapists, Teachers, and Parents

If you're a parent who is tired of nagging your child about sloppy handwriting and/or poor academic performance... If you're a teacher who wants to delve deeper into learning about how handwriting skills develop and/or when to refer a child to a specialist... If you're a therapist looking for an educational resource for your clients...

On the Road to Handwriting Success: A Resource Guide for Therapists, Teachers and Parents is for you! It is written by Dr. Carol Leibovich-Mankes, an Occupational Therapist and Parent Coach with 20 years of experience in the field.

Remember-a Child's Behavior is not Always What it Seems.

What we see is behavior; what we don't see are the possible underlying struggles preventing the child from meeting expectations. These may include unmet basic needs (sleep, hunger, need for attention, security, etc.), self-esteem issues, heightened emotions, developmental level, executive-function abilities, sensory needs, and/or undiagnosed disabilities. This guide will help you discover your child's strengths and weaknesses. Its focus is on his/her abilities, not entirely on diagnosis.

On the Road to Handwriting Success is the ultimate resource for therapists, teachers, and parents. In it, you will find tips, strategies, suggestions, and information to minimize and understand undesirable behavior(s), below grade level performance and to support handwriting and learning development in children.

Let's Assist our Children in Reaching their Unique and Full Potential by Improving their Skills and Providing them with Strategies for Learning and Life Success.

Reviews for On The Road To Handwriting Success: A Resource Guide for Therapists, Teachers, and Parents

Does handwriting really matter? Should my child spend energy on remediating handwriting when technology is at our fingertips? Why do kids have handwriting difficulties and can improving it maximize my child's academic success? The Answer To All Questions Is A Resounding YES! Many might say that handwriting just involves taking a pencil and scribbling characters on a piece of paper. However, that is far from the truth. Dr. Carol Leibovich-Mankes has written, no pun intended, the ultimate guide for parents, teachers, students and therapists: On The Road To Handwriting Success . The deeper you get into the book the more you discover about the neurological process of writing and how it relates to overall child development, learning and behavior. Are you ready to learn about handwriting, but most importantly, assist your child in reaching their full potential at home and school? - Ann Collins, Book Reviewer
