After completing these lessons they are doing a fantastic job forming the letters in their name and writing the letters in the correct order! They also had fun working on this booklet.”  - Katie Hubert

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ”I am a Language Arts Specialist at a private school, when we started the year we really focused on all of the kids (Earlychildhood, PreK, and K), all focusing on writing their name, identifying the letters in their name, and focusing on the development of the letters in their name. I tried to find fun engaging activities that the kids would love to use for learning their names. This resources was great, it was easy to use, and editable so I could write all the kids names in it before printing. I even used it as a portfolio resource for showing the parents over time how the students have developed their  name writing skills.”

As a teacher, I found prepping this resource very easy and quick. I really enjoyed the printing page which helped me easily figure out which pages to print without having to scroll though the entire document.”  - Marci M.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “My students use this each day to sign into class.  I laminate  one for each student and they use a dry erase marker.  this is a great resource for name progression. The boxes are very helpful when teaching students that some letters are taller than others,  and helps when we start using lined paper.”  - Colleen S.

I thought the booklet was a little long and that my kiddos would lose interest, but to my surprise they did NOT! They loved these books. Most of my kiddos finished it in the same day. My plan was to break it up a bit, but they wanted to finish it.“  Becca W.
