What’s included?
This download includes x3 A4, pdf sheets (portrait orientation) to practise handwriting the lowercase letters s, f, x, z, e. The way these letters are written is more irregular than the letters in the other groups (also available!)

What’s it for?
These resources have been designed to practise handwriting letters according to their letter shapes as there can be a sense of confusion for some learners when writing letters which are visually similar. This resource set should help in providing some focused additional support looking at these letters together, reinforcing the correct way of writing letters which are similar in shape.

Who’s it for?
These resources have been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support.

These resources have been designed as these letters are 'similar’ - the way they are formed is more ‘irregular’ than the other letter groups. These letters zig zag (the letter ‘z’), start and stop in alternating directions (the letter ‘x’), twist and turn (AND start and stop!) - letters ’s’ and ‘f’, begin writing in a reverse direction than ‘usual’ (the letter ‘e’). These handwriting sheets should help in providing some focused additional support looking at these letters.

Resource details
The font used is Sassoon Infant Std - size 100.

This activity has been designed to write straight on. Each letter has a clear ‘starting dot’ so learners know where to place their pencil to begin and dotted lines on top of letters provide guidance of where exactly to write.

Letters are organised into pairs - s/f, x/z and e/z.

There is a clear space for learners to write their name on the line at the base of the sheet. There is also a clear space to record the number date at the top, right of the sheet. It would be helpful to keep completed sheets to track progress (and improvement!) over time.

All letters are positioned on a line - to model how letters should look when positioned correctly on a line.
