Espresso Handwriting videos to promote independent intervention

PictureEspresso Handwriting
I have to be honest and say that I have never really been a fan of Espresso and have therefor never really used it reguarly in class. Don't get me wrong, the resources are fantastic and the effort that goes into the website is amazing but I have always planned sessions and created resources to match the childrens needs. This being said I have become a great fan of the Espresso handwriting videos for the children. They are fun for the children to follow and not only demonstrate the formation of letters but also talk about the sounds, great for my year 1's! By creating a link to the Espresso cache on our tablets the children are able to access the videos from their desks. Now when I do my handwriting in small groups the children can plug headphones in and choose the letters that they would like to practice (or that I have "suggested" they practice.) The children remain very engaged watching the videos and then use their handwriting books to write the letters. I have also seen some of my children use their finger to follow the video before they write their letters. I would highly recomend these videos or any similar found online to allow children to lead their learning from an early age.
