We learn to make letters using the Handwriting Without Tears program. It uses 4 basic lines: big curve, little curve, big line and small line. Introducing these lines starts with introducing Mat Man, he's made from all of these lines. The children use the pieces to make Mat Man, then they will draw themselves, making sure to have: a head, eyes, nose, mouth, ears, neck, body, arms, hands, legs and feet, don't forget hair!
