What educators are saying
Description
⭐Are you a self-contained special education teacher? If so, your students likely need support in pre-writing skills instruction through a variety of different levels. Writing can be such a challenging task for our learners. Most students I have served truly need hands-on support at the most basic level to get them started. That’s why I created this pre-writing resource for my students. This pre-writing set provides 11 different leveled units to meet the needs of all students. I also love using this as data to show parents/IEP team how their writing has progressed throughout the year.
Here are some ways it has helped me in the classroom.
- It provides leveled pre-writing instruction for a self-contained classroom that can be used all year
- It provides simple repetition for learners for each day (this helps with routines and expectations)
- It is leveled and designed to increase in difficulty as they progress
- It is 100% NO prep- just print and go
- With 11 different units provided there’s something for everyone from the start
- The layout is clear, simple, and free from distractions
- Can be used with any student- I even use the level 1 sheets with students needing hand over hand support
What’s Included?
- This 180-page pre-writing bundle is designed for struggling or beginning writers.
- 11 units are included to help your students build their writing skills over the course of the school year.
- Unit 1- Lines
- Unit 2- Curves

Check out the preview to see a sample of each unit.
These worksheets can be printed for 1-time use or placed in sheet protectors to be used over and over again! I would recommend printing at least a pre/post page if you plan to use this to show progress over a period of time.

How is this helping others right now?
⭐This resource has been helpful in my classroom. My students that struggle with pencil grip and legible handwriting ask me daily if they can practice. I have seen improvements since they have been working through these sheets.
⭐I absolutely LOVED this product and feel that it was such a steal! I have a variety of students with a variety of fine motor levels and found this helpful for ALL of them! I like that the pages are simple and clean so there are not too many visual distractions and I loved that they are numbered and organized into units. Thank you so much for this!
⭐This has been so helpful for some of my kids who have little to no experience holding a crayon or pencil! Thank you so much:)
⭐My students that were struggling with writing found this resource very useful! Thank you! Looking forward to using it for my class for the rest of the year.
