The Preventing Academic Failure (PAF) Handwriting Program can be used in conjunction with the PAF curriculum or independently as a classroom penmanship program. The techniques were designed to accommodate all students including those with graphomotor weaknesses and are derived from the latest research on how children learn to write. Four workbooks are available (print, numerals, cursive right-handed and cursive left-handed), each accompanied by a detailed instruction book. Children are eager to learn "grown-up" cursive writing! The Handwriting Program for Cursive workbook (left-handed) provides large models for tracing that allow students to use arm muscles to learn letters. Small models are provided on 1 1/2-inch lined practice paper to facilitate the transition to regular writing paper.
With the third Left Hand Writing Skills series book the writer can now apply all that has been learned to writing with a pen. Ink is the real test of success for the left-handed writer! First, to create words which are accurately formed and legible, and then to avoid spoiling them by smudging as the left hand follows the pen across the page.
The author states that the purpose of his book is to teach anyone to write legibly and fluently from a movement point of view. It is not concerned with grammar or style but with penmanship itself.
Creative Brain Training is a course currently being taught to incarcerated participants in different prisons across Southern California. In 2011, the author, Diego Irigoyen, reached an all-time low. Having been put on academic probation, Irigoyen decided to change his life around and this book describes the techniques he used to go from poor scholastics to receiving multiple awards for his creative endeavors and educational research. Irigoyen has taught his Creative Brain Training course for over three years at a variety of levels ranging from middle school to college, and adults in prison, with a majority of that time teaching adults. This book will help you tap into your dormant potential in the opposite hemisphere of the brain. Creative Brain Training offers the pragmatic information to go from a lazy, timid, distracted, and bored state of mind to an energized, vibrant, attentive, and creative state of mind.
