Empowering Left-Handed Learners with the Launch of New Interactive Downloadable Training Resource

Left ‘n Write, a leading provider of left-handed educational resources, is excited to announce the launch of its ground-breaking video resource “Left-Handed Children – A Guide for Teachers and Parents” . See trailer below.

This new addition to Left ‘n Write’s suite of innovative solutions and educational tools aims to address the unique challenges faced by left-handed children and provide comprehensive guidance for improving their educational journey. The video is downloadable and interactive with a run time of 35 mins but can be paused as desired to undertake the various activities.

Left-handed children often encounter challenges in writing and other activities, such as poor grip, messy handwriting, and difficulty in copying text. The video resource delves into these specific challenges and offers practical solutions. It includes a training video that breaks down essential aspects of the left-handed handwriting technique, a pre-training sheet with instructions, and activities to help identify left or right-handedness. Additional resources include a teacher’s checklist and a school audit tool that are provided to enhance a teacher’s understanding and support for left-handed students.

Is this video good for educational professionals to help left-handed children in schools?

“The video resource developed by Left ‘n Write is an invaluable tool that has been long overdue,” comments @Rob Snaith, a left-handed person, and director of Teachers’ Courses & Resources Limited. “I’ve witnessed first-hand the challenges faced by left-handed children in the classroom. This resource provides much-needed guidance and support for teachers and parents, helping them create an environment where left-handed children can thrive. The training video should be available in every school, as its impact on improving left-handed children’s educational experiences is transformative.”

The video  is sponsored by Stabilo, producer of specifically left-handed and right-handed writing equipment.
