The paper describes strategies for teaching six different handwriting skills to learning disabled (LD) elementary students. A rationale for each strategy precedes step-by-step procedural descriptions. Strategies in the following areas are described: (1) introducing LD children with motor coordination deficits to alphabetic symbols using sandpaper letters; (2) using cursive writing to help remediate directional confusion; (3) giving students practice in staying within the baseline work space and controlling consistency in letter sizing; (4) remediating visual-spacial difficulties of students who are unable to keep regular spacing between words or symbols; (5) teaching cursive writing using the vertical downstroke and natural connections between manuscript letters; (6) using a variety of visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile activities to address reversal problems.
