Alphabet 8's Chart (Neuro-Development Tool)

This A3 size chart, is a visual reminder and kinesthetic teaching aid for the Alphabet 8s activity.

Used for integrating the movements Involved in writing.  The Alphabet 8s Chart is a hands-on teaching aid, designed so that children can use their fingers to trace the letters of the alphabet right on the chart. The word ‘alphabet’ comes from the root words of ‘alpha’ and ‘beta’. Once we put together the ‘alpha’ and ‘beta’ shapes of the Lazy 8, we can easily learn the whole alphabet. Youngsters who learn to read or write backwards often can’t see what they are doing wrong. As these students physically follow the letter, their visual confusion is resolved.
