Abstract
A printing program, developed by the Sunny Hill Health Research Centre Therapy Department, to support primary grade children learn the correct way to form each letter so that printing becomes easier and more automatic. This can also help to make printing neater and quicker. This printing program is appropriate for all types of learners in primary grades. It was, however, developed specifically for students with motor learning challenges. It can be used one-on-one or in small group work.
