When you finish, it looks like a pyramid. Also, try cutting letters out of magazines and sticking them. Or Scrabble tiles. rainbow writing. Drawing boxes around the letters (this helps with letter size, too and getting letters with descenders under the line). Dividing into syllables. Writing a letter with no vowels, then adding the vowels in. Look, say, cover, write, check. I can probably think of six or seven more we commonly use if I put my mind to it!Kate Northhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04995181032124912822noreply@blogger.com
