Printing Numerals Accurately

This is a quick video that may reinforce the accurate formation of numbers. When modeling the number 5, the hat on top will need to be demonstrated as the last stroke.  The use of the hand to guide numbers could be used with our number verses.

Number Rhymes

0  Curve from the top; be a hero! Close the loop and make a zero.

1  Straight line down, then we’re done. That’s the way to make a one.

2  Around and back on the railroad track.  Two, two!

3  Around a tree, around a tree.  That’s the way to make a three.

4  Down and over.  Down once more.  That’s the way to make a four.

5  Straight line down, then around.  Hat on top and five’s a clown.

6  Stick and a hoop do the tricks.  That’s the way to make a six.

7  Across the sky, then down to the ground.  That’s the way a seven is found.

8  Make an S, but do not wait.  Close it up and that’s an eight.

9  First a loop, then a line.  That’s the way to make a nine.

10  A one and a zero together again.  That’s the way to make a ten.
