Morning Bev! I'm working with a stroke patient who wants to be able to write with her non-dominant hand.
Morning Bev! I'm working with a stroke patient who wants to be able to write with her non-dominant hand. I struggled with how to get her to legibly write when she wasn't tracing a letter, and then I remembered your program! We started talking about appropriate sizes of letters and her ligibility dramatically improved very quickly. Just wanted to share and say thank you! She is thrilled at her progress so far!

I finally got my school to get me Beverly Moskowitz’s size matters program. I’ve been using as an RTI intervention for a 3rd grader I tested. All OT testing was average to above average. Yet his writing was nearly illegible. I truly thought he was dysgraphic. The difference with SMH program has been AMAZING!!! In less than a month his writing is legible!!! Teacher has him practice 5 min. A day and parents are practicing a bit at home. NEVER in my 25 years as an OT have I seen such quick progress!!! I’m totally sold!! You can start it with very little.

"So today, all recharged from POTA, I decided to try out my new Size Matters handwriting techniques.
"So today, all recharged from POTA, I decided to try out my new Size Matters handwriting techniques. I was a little skeptical because the class I wanted to pilot with is soooo low (they are a disabled kindergarten class and only had substitute teachers last year, not being able to find a full time teacher). They are so behind with letter skills, number skills, coloring, cutting, and just basic knowledge they should be demonstrating. Its frustrating for the new teacher to determine where to start. She’s great and very open minded so always asking for my opinion on what to do. I haven’t fully read your manual yet, but I remember your three rules during the presentation for capital letters (we used it for numbers today too), “don’t go above the line, don’t go below the line, NO FLOATING (wiggle hand movements included)!” The kids LOVE the song by the way, and all they want to do is get star worthy letters/numbers! I WAS SHOCKED! THEY PICKED UP ON IT SOOO FAST!!! I’m hooked! Today I just did it with some of my kids adapting as needed (tracing my lines, making the lower line thicker), they all did so great with it! They were even self correcting, and erasing without me telling them they needed to be fixed! AMAZING!"

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."

"Earlier this year I wrote to you about a kindergarten teacher who didn't believe kindergarten students were developmentally ready/able to print on lined paper.
"Earlier this year I wrote to you about a kindergarten teacher who didn't believe kindergarten students were developmentally ready/able to print on lined paper. I implemented some of your advice and wanted to share with you what happened.
That teacher quite readily agreed to let me start teaching a weekly handwriting lesson with her class. Soon she began to notice handwriting was improving and the students were remembering and using the rules even when I wasn't there. She reported a student was erasing a letter in a word that was otherwise spelled correctly. When she questioned why, he replied "Because it's floating".
Hooray!!!
My lessons happened to come up in conversation with kindergarten teacher #2 who indicated that she'd like to have me give lessons in her class as well. She also reports carry over into classroom assignments and has become quite the fan.
Kindergarten teacher #3 stopped me in the hallway to ask what I was doing in the other classes that they were raving about and could I come to her class too!
I participate in a professional learning community with these 3 teachers and an instructional coach. I brought the written language production guide and some of the Size Matters research to my group and gave an overview of each. They all asked for copies and the coach was going to share some of it with other grade levels, particularly the written language production guide. Happily they noticed how Size Matters directly addresses the standards.
This school will likely only have 2 kindergarten classes next year, but both have already told me how beneficial the lessons have been and that they would like me to start on the first week in the fall. I thought that was the best compliment of all!
I love making a difference with a larger group of kids. Teachers and my principal have really noticed my contributions and value what I have to offer. I also appreciate getting to have eyes on all of the kindergarten students to help identify who might need a referral for further evaluation. Thanks so much for all of your help!"

I just wanted to say what an excellent conference you did yesterday in New Rochelle. I was lucky enough to have been in attendance. The take-aways were extremely user-friendly and able to be put into place right away. I tried putting the construction paper under the sheet of paper and it did allow my student to have more control when coloring in a shape. I found the sensory break ideas that we did as a group useful and even tried some of those today. I look forward to sharing the articles with my team related to workload vs. caseload as it has been a hot topic recently.

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. Here's why, please see the attachments.
I work in the public schools. I decided to use the program with one student following the AOTA conference. The attachments are the work of that student, who is now in first grade. The concepts clicked for him this week and the results are dramatic! The papers are copies of his spelling tests that were given in the classroom, I was not present. They are one week apart. I have been waiting for a moment like this for over 25 years!
I just wanted to share some really fantastic results!

I took Beverly's Time saving course in January and used her school strategies when I returned from work. My students loved rolling dice and their letter formation improved. They were slowing down and motivated to "touch the line" correctly". One student in particular made tremendous gains. I switched school districts in April and this student who was a first grader had notes from the former OT stating to the teacher that his handwriting had not improved all year and she was very concerned. I started rolling dice with this student and he loved it. His teacher started showing me legible journal entries. His mom was also so relieved and proud of him.
