A great activity for a first lesson encouraging calmness, purpose and focus, reflecting on how we all learn to write and the concept that it is different from one country to another. The French handwriting is very distinctive and often described as elegant.
In primary schools in France, kids practise lines and lines of this “loopy”, “elegant” handwriting when learning to write.
It will not suit everybody but you may have 2 or 3 students who will love it enough to transform their own handwriting and see it as a craft/ calligraphy hobby!
Great activity for a lunch club! Goes nicely with making Christmas cards or for a writing activity, for more advanced or crafty students.
