🎉🍎 We know the feeling, you’ve planned a brilliant literacy lesson, but the momentum stalls because your learners are still wobbling on their basic letter heights. Seeing 't' and 'l' looking the same size, or 'y' and 'j' floating above the lines, can be a real headache during marking. You want your class to feel proud of their work, but finding the time to give every child one to one attention to practise this is impossible.

That’s where this Ladder Letters handwriting video comes in. We’ve designed this to be your extra pair of hands in the classroom. Press play and let your class practise using the video. We use clear, pacy animations to show exactly how to form the letters 'l', 'i', 'u', 't', 'j', and 'y'.

How this supports you and your class:

* Consistency without the fatigue: Whether it’s a morning starter or a focused intervention your children will get expert modelling.

* Instant confidence: Short, snappy demonstrations show the letters in isolation helping children see progress immediately.

* Flexibility for your day: Use this as a whole-class "hook" or let a small group work through it independently while you focus on those who need a bit of extra help.
