How Our Assessment Forms Work

Our assessments and progress trackers evaluate the work paper and workstation organization on a four-point rubric that considers indentation, erasures, page layout, use of left and right margins, space planning, desk contents, and desktop setup. These handwriting assessments also track scores for individual spacing, letter size, and copying skills to provide even more information for Occupational Therapists. Both generative and copied writing tasks are scored for size, space, and degree of independence. Copying tasks are also scored for letters and words per minute. Using all of these data points, you can plan personalized assistance for students and track improvements over the long term.

  • "I simply love SMHP, and how it's helped my students, THAT much! The ship has NEVER sailed for letter/number, line orientation and spacing for handwriting legibility.  Try the *evidence-based* Size Matters Handwriting Program. I've been using it for 3+ years now with much success. It's SO simple and intuitive, that I could do it in the soil with a stick (if I had to), and get results! There's even fun to it that facilitates student buy-in!"

  • "I just have to tell you, I've been using parts of the program for the last week with most of my students in Occupational Therapy Services. I have the biggest smile and feel like jumping for JOY when I write my notes. Most of my students can pick up on the easy/fun instructions. Almost all the letter spacing has improved with Spaghetti and Meatballs. Almost all the letter size has improved with the Size Numbering 1,2,3. IT'S A MIRACLE. Thanks a MILLION."

  • "I have used the SMHP during (the) last school year and I love it! And most importantly the kids love it! I have had so much success with this program with all of my kids, but one in particular comes to mind. I had tried everything from different paper to grips with no success. The very first time I introduced this to them most of their letters were inside the boxes!"

  • "The SMHP is the first program I have implemented that the kids are actually EXCITED to try and practice making letters....Teachers pick up on the terminology quickly and generally I find they are supportive to use consistent language etc... As a therapist it’s the first handwriting program that I have ever been passionate about! Highly recommend to all...thank you Beverly Moskowitz!!"

  • "I had heard of the Size Matters Handwriting Program just prior to the AOTA conference in Chicago this past spring. I was able to speak with you at the conference, purchase a manual, and watch some YouTube videos. I recently purchased your self-study webinar series and am excited to learn more."
