Heather,

Take this for what is is worth too...sometimes schools/teachers  
"encourage" parents to do things at home that they don't want to deal  
with at school when they know the parent is "motivated".  I've seen  
that too many times in my years of teaching.  I forget who said it,  
but the suggestion to let the school handle teaching the handwriting  
really is a good suggestion.  They know all the goofy terminology to  
instruct how to form the letters that they use with the kids to make  
it make sense to them.
