 Unlike other programs that focus on fine motor skills, Head-to-Hand takes a unique approach by addressing the underlying deficits in language and executive function skills specific to children with dysgraphia.

This program provides specific feedback to address your child’s needs, allowing each letter to progress at its own pace. By starting with short, supported practice sessions, your child can experience success with writing, leading to increased efficiency and decreased time spent on writing tasks.

Not only does Head-to-Hand target letter-level language deficits, but it also improves word-level reading and spelling skills by freeing up cognitive processing at the subword level. And while the program is critical for children with dysgraphia, it will work for most children.

Our program is self-paced and comes with mailed course materials and support videos available online. Plus, we offer a money-back guarantee if you don’t see progress after a month of consistent use.

Join the many parents and professionals who have seen tremendous growth in their children’s writing skills with the Head-to-Hand Writing program.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Head-to-Hand Writing Program

Yes. Most popular handwriting programs emphasize developing fine motor skills for handwriting, but this is not the area of impairment for children with dysgraphia. The Head-to-Hand Writing program takes a unique approach to handwriting that specifically addresses the underlying deficits in children with dysgraphia.

Head-to-Hand focuses on the language and executive function skills needed for accurate and efficient handwriting. Children with learning differences learn how to organize letter information in their brains, eliminating letter reversals and increasing letter writing accuracy and speed.

Yes, the program provides specific feedback to address the child’s needs. Every letter progresses through each level with the exact amount of support needed for your child to be successful. You will know exactly what support your child needs with each letter. By allowing each letter to progress at its own pace, the program will address your child’s specific needs. 

We carefully scaffold the activities in the Head-to-Hand program to ensure carryover into functional writing tasks. Without the appropriate support, it is unrealistic to expect a child to jump from accurate letter formation in isolation to sentences. That’s why it’s crucial to address the language and executive function skills necessary for letter formation

The program was created by a literacy professional, but designed with parents in mind. The instructions are written so the program can be used by professionals in the school/ clinic setting and parents at home.
That depends on how often you practice and how much support your child needs to progress through each level. The more you practice, the faster they will progress. Most children I work with see results in just one week; with consistent practice, their writing skills can completely transform in just a few months.
I recommend 10-15 minutes of practice each day. You can pick up where you left off the previous day and progress as able. Many kids, especially older kids with dysgraphia, have developed a trauma response to writing tasks. By starting with short, supported practice sessions scaffolded in a way that allows them to experience success with writing, they will eventually tolerate longer sessions and even begin to enjoy learning to write!
This is common in children with dysgraphia. They may erase often or extend letter lines to make each letter look better, but this is incredibly inefficient. The Head-to-Hand can significantly decrease how long it takes your child to complete writing tasks.
Yes, the Head-to-Hand Writing program takes our knowledge about word-level reading and applies it to letter writing development. It teaches letters in an explicit, systematic, multimodal, cumulative, and responsive way to each child’s needs. This program is critical for children with dysgraphia but will work for most children.
Head-to-Hand focuses on the language and executive function skills needed for letter writing. Of course, a child needs appropriate motor skills to execute letter writing, but fine motor development is not the area of deficit targeted by this program.
Not necessarily, but many times backing up to address the foundational, letter-level language deficits will significantly improve a child’s success in word-level reading and spelling intervention because it frees up cognitive processing at the subword level. Once the child is more efficient with their letter writing skills, they can focus their attention on spelling patterns. That being said, the Head-to-Hand Writing program does work on spelling with phonetically regular words.
Research is consistent that children need to learn letter names and the sounds associated with letters. The Head-to-Hand Writing program teaches both letter names and the common sound-letter correspondences. Letters don’t make sounds; they represent sounds. Until a letter is part of a word, the only thing we know for sure is the letter name. This is consistent with a speech-to-print methodology for literacy intervention.
The Head-to-Hand Writing program is self-paced. The course materials will be mailed to you and there are support videos available online that demonstrate how to use the program at each level.
Yes, If you don’t see any progress after a month of consistently using the program at least 4 times a week, you will get your money back.
Absolutely! We have reports and pictures from many parents showing tremendous growth from using the Head-to-Hand Writing program.
The program was designed to be used with a parent or professional supporting the child. A child should not be expected to use the program independently.
The Head-to-Hand Writing program provides instruction for collecting baseline measures and progress monitoring data, so you can see the improvement in your child’s writing.
Part of typical development is learning that regardless of the angle an item is viewed, it remains the same item. This is known as “mirror generalization” and is a natural developmental process. However, when learning to read, which is not a natural developmental process, our brain must unlearn mirror generalization for letters like b/d and p/q. This is why it is normal for children to have reversals when first learning to write. This “unlearning” process occurs for most children before they turn 8 years old. However, for children with dyslexia, who have difficulty pairing letters with sounds, it may persist much longer. To help a child “unlearn” mirror generalization more quickly, their brain must recognize that directionality in letters has meaning. Repetitive letter writing is not the solution to letter reversals. The Head-to-Hand program teaches children systematically that directionality has meaning for letters through language tasks. This is the key to eliminating letter reversals.
