Hi Norma,
We are getting a lot of heat (undoubtedly deserved) for not having re-introduced the Literacy Task Cards. We apologize, but with limited resources we only have so many hours in the day and are working diligently to re-release this great resource as soon as possible. Please be sure to add your name to our Subscriber List and we will update everyone as soon as the Task Cards are available again.
Best Regards,
Teaching Resource Center Support Team

We have many 4K teachers wondering what makes the most sense when teaching handwriting to their little ones. Questions such as, “Do I teach uppercase? Do I teach just lowercase? Is there a special order to teaching the letters? Could you let us know what you think or lead us in the direction of a great resource.

We have purchased the individual sets of the alphabet chart and also the big poster of the alphabet chart, which we use in our comprehensive balanced literacy model. We needed to replace 100+ of the alphabet charts that the students keep at their desks or tables and can’t order them now. Will those be available soon?
