We’ve all been there, the frustration of seeing a bright student’s ideas get lost in a tangle of messy letters, or that sinking feeling during a moderation session when handwriting isn't quite hitting the mark. Teaching the Curly Caterpillar letters can feel like an uphill battle, especially when you’re trying to find the time to model every single letter perfectly for all the children in your class.

That’s where this Handwriting Curly Caterpillar guide comes in. We’ve designed this video to take the pressure off you and give your class the confidence boost they need. Our Handwriting guide demonstrates practical tips to improve handwriting and guides viewers through how letters 'e', 'f, 'g', 'o', 'q', 's', 'a', 'c', and 'd' are formed. Practise at home or school with a pencil and paper, focusing on proper pencil grip for neat handwriting.

* Reclaim your time: Pop this on for a focused morning starter or a calm transition task while you check in with your intervention groups.

* Consistency is key: Your pupils see the same expert formation every time, reducing those "where does this letter start?" questions.

* Builds instant confidence: No more "I can't do it." The short, snappy demonstrations show the letters in isolation and in words, making cursive feel achievable rather than overwhelming.

Give your pens (and your patience) a rest. Hit play and watch your class master those tricky curls and flicks more easily.
