New wave Pre-writing patterns presents a simple, systematic and fun approach for teaching the foundation skills that are necessary for fluent handwriting.

New wave Pre-writing patterns introduces each new pattern in three stages:
Stage 1: Learn the new pattern as a big body movement. At this initial stage it is essential that the oral prompting clues are also established.
Stage 2: Use art activities to practice the new movement, in big and small ways, to form a memory for making pre-writing patterns.
Stage 3: Consolidate the new movement and pattern through pre-writing pattern activity worksheets
