This unique teenage handwriting workbook provides teens who need to improve their cursive writing fluency a chance to do it with a more age appropriate workbook (since the sentences were prepared with a teenage audience in mind).
Note For teens who need more advanced handwriting practice (with a smaller font size and narrower lines, and without tracing exercises), Julie Harper also has a more advanced cursive handwriting workbook for teens Advanced Cursive Handwriting Practice Workbook for Teens (ISBN 1523234598).

- Students practice tracing and copying phrases and sentences in Part 1.
- Part 2 just involves copying (with no tracing).
- A challenge is presented in Part 3 The sentences are printed, and students must rewrite them in cursive. This requires students to remember what the cursive letters look like (though they can look at a chart on pages 5-6 if they need a reminder).

I've been through so many different handwriting programs with my boys. They want to be better at cursive writing but they are too old for elementary programs, and we found out the hard way that using fancy italic methods really wastes years of time. This book is sort of what I had in mind because it isn't childish so it does appeal to teens. The book would be better if it started with individual letter formation and gradual advances to paragraphs. I'm guessing the author is assuming that teens using this book already have the basics perfected. The reality is that anytime a new type of handwriting is introduced, it needs to be done so starting at basic individual letter formation because the styles are all so different.Product details

Cursive Handwriting Practice Workbook for Teens edition by Julie Harper Reference eBooks Reviews
I was always disappointed that my daughter's elementary school did not teach cursive writing, and since we started homeschooling recently, I decided better late than never. My daughter was initially intimidated by learning cursive, but this book is so much fun that she even worked ahead of our scheduled lessons (!) and now can both read and write in cursive easily. This is a great workbook that helped develop what will be a lifelong skill.
Geared towards older kids and was indeed more interesting to them than previous books we've looked at. Both my teens are learning quickly, they are actually having fun with it and seem proud! It's extremely important for our kids to, in the very least, to be able to create their own signatures and am thankful for tools like this since cursive handwriting is one of many examples of the educational systems failures in teaching our children.
My child has taken cursive since 1st grade. She is now going into 4th and this book was a bit behind what she was used to. Luckily we got the Advanced which was right on par with where she was at, and I will be saving this book for my tutoring.
My 14 year old learn cursive with this book in 3 weeks. Yes is very appealing to teens and that kept him interested.
I got this workbook, as a means for me to relearn the basics of cursive writing. Yes, I am one of those people who learned cursive writing in school. However, my writing has been sloppy which didn't work so well after the fountain pen bug bit me. So far so good. There has been some adjustments so I can have time to practice but so far well worth it. I like that there are arrows to show which way to move the pen/nib. I would recommend but like anything in this class a little more direction in the text would have been nice.
It's okay, the problem is that it doesn't give you direction on writing cursive. It simply is a bunch of exercises.
For example, how does one start a capital "G"? I know the answer, because I was taught traditional cursive, but teens these days often don't know, because it's not taught in schools anymore.
I am baffled as to why the authors didn't do this simple example. It's widely available on the internet, so no big deal (for example, at http//missourieducationwatchdog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/cursive.png). But it should have been in the book.
I purchased this for my 9-year-old third grader because she just finished learning the single letters and, now, needs something to practice words. I needed to be sure she could trace and write and to be sure her interest was held while doing so. It exceeds my expectations. The phrases are short and age-appropriate; however, for a teen? I guess it depends on personal needs. I would think this is too remedial for a teenager unless they are just beginning to learn cursive.
Take a look at the inside...it is a fair representation of the entire book. It gets progressively more difficult in that the phrases go from being traceable to untraceable to translation from printing to cursive; however, the phrases don't seem to get longer or more difficult. They are just that...phrases.
For my 11-year-old, I chose "Wacky Sentences Handwriting Workbook" for third and fourth grade, also by Julie Harper. I feel that book is more age-appropriate for a teen. It is mostly personal preference and, I can tell you, my 11-year-old would much rather she had this book than the wacky sentences book; however, only because the phrases are shorter and, she feels, would be less work for her.
