What your child practices.
Waves train the hand to reverse direction smoothly at the top and bottom of each curve. Saying “up, down” aloud while tracing turns the sheet into a rhythm game, and rhythm is what makes handwriting fluent.
- Smooth direction changes
- Even wave height
- Rhythm: saying the movement out loud
- Row-by-row independence
On the sheet: Trace the three waves from the boat to the lighthouse.
