- 6 picture-glossary pages with meanings and example sentences.
- 7 handwriting sheets using grey models, dotted letters and independent copying space.
- 17 PDF pages in total: front cover, instructions, glossary, handwriting sheets and two terms pages.
Teaching royalty handwriting
Sort a few glossary pictures into people, places and objects. Read each meaning, then model the corresponding name through the three writing strips. Compare palace and castle using the supplied explanations. Give unfamiliar spellings such as sceptre an oral rehearsal and a clear written model before independent copying.
