Writing is a functional activity that enables individuals to achieve numerous goals associated with everyday living. Teachers regard writing as an activity which must be accompanied by thought and purpose. The chief goal in handwriting is legibility. Handwriting then must be taught by means of a developmental program the same as other areas in the curriculum. One of the most important factors in handwriting is motivation. There exists many kinds of incentives that a teacher may use to motivate students. The following are: (1) actual desire to make handwriting a useful part of living, (2) competition, (3) awards. Handedness also plays a great role in the writing abilities of a child.
