Review on 📚 Enhancing Emotional Intelligence with Learning Without Tears: Social Emotional Pre Writing Bundle by Rick Everett

This is a wonderful book. I have bought several books to teach my kids how to write letters and most of them are very large and arranged in alphabetical order to teach kids how to write. When I ordered this book I was a little disappointed that the letters weren't in alphabetical order and the kids learned to write randomly. But I made a few pages. One night while I was reading a book I asked one of my boys who was having trouble with letters to read certain letters and he made them write everything. He first began to distinguish between B and D, T and Z. I was surprised and happy because we had made these letters out of this book just the day before. I am nearing graduation and very, very pleased with the progress my children have made. My boys are 4 years old and have just started learning to write all their alphabets but have fallen behind the girls in their class. So I spent the summer with this book. It took longer at first but now I'm doing 2-3 pages a day and we should be done in the next week or so. I am very, very happy with this book. This is one of the best books I've seen for writing practice and way better than boring books that just assume kids have to write the alphabet over and over to memorize it. The only thing this book could have done better would be to put a "zigzag" in it. One of my guys writes in "curved" letters A, M, W, V, etc. He has trouble making sharp angles with a straight line and makes it meandering instead. I didn't find this book very helpful. After I showed him the zigzag and made zigzag lines, he was able to write A, M, W, V, H, etc. much better. Also, he found it very difficult to tell the difference between C and S and continued to write C as ). Even the creation of this book did not help. So I want this book to focus on creative ways to help with that. Nonetheless, I highly recommend this book. My children started kindergarten this year and are already doing well with letters. One of my boys who had trouble recognizing letters did better with this book than another boy who knows letters very well but can't write yet. I wish there was a similar book for lower case letters. The next level is too high as children write the words. I wish there was at least one book on lowercase letters. That it's not in alphabetical order makes sense to me now because the book focuses on getting kids to develop in the right direction, not just following the alphabetical order.
