摘要:The purpose of this study was to evaluate empirically the effects of the Handwriting withoutTears® (Olsen, 1998) program for teaching two preschool students with developmental delays towrite letters legibly. Participants were enrolled in a self-contained special education classroomand four letters were targeted for intervention. Specifically, letters in the child’s name for oneparticipant and developmentally appropriate letters were chosen for the other participant. Forbaseline, each participant displayed little or no skills to write targeted letters legibly. Use of theHandwriting without Tears® ® chalkboard, wooden letters, and worksheet procedures alongwith the added steps of highlight, model and start point resulted in the participants’ ability tolegibly write letters. The Handwriting without Tears® materials and its application arediscussed.
