Letter d

For students who reverse the letters b and d try introducing them to this strategy:  changing the word dog into a drawing of a dog.  

Used with the letter b strategy (see my previous blog) the students have fun practising writing the letter d in a very active and visual way.

Letter b

For students who frequently reverse the letters b and d try introducing them to this strategy: changing the word bee to a cute drawing of a bee.  My students enjoy drawing the bee which not only gives them practice at writing the letter b, but is also  a very visual image of the letter b.
