The first thing is to get a proper and comfortable grip of the pencil. Hold your pencil at the top near the eraser
and try to write your name. Tough, isn’t it? But when you hold your pencil the correct way, writing is much easier. The best way to hold a pen or pencil is to let it rest at the base of your thumb. Hold it in place with your thumb, and index and middle fingers.
You can make lines your guide. Those lines can help you create letters that are the right size and
proportion. Proportion means that one thing is the right size compared with the other. So your lower case “a” should be half the height of a capital “A”. Be sure to fill up the lined space completely. Those capital letters should stretch from the bottom line to the top one.
Some kids press down very hard when they write. That makes it harder to make the smooth lines needed for writing, specially joining
handwriting. Try easing up, do not grip the pencil as tightly, and let your pencil mark the paper without going all the way through.
After making sure that you are physically and mentally in a proper shape to start working here are some final tips that you might follow while working.
Hold your pencil firmly and your index finger should be about 2cm from the tip of the pencil. Your hand should make the question mark shape which is called the precision grip. Hold your writing hand in a position where you can see all that you are writing. Hold your paper with the no-writing hand. Sit comfortably so that your body does not touch the table. And at the end rest your arms on the desk to avoid fatigue.
