All students at Wildwood work toward mastery of the D'Nealian style of handwriting.
The D'Nealian Handwriting Program is "a true original" because:
- It is the first program to offer a continuous stroke method of handwriting.
- Lower-case manuscript letters have the same form as their cursive counterparts.
- There is a continuous skill progression.
- There is emphasis on legibility rather than conformity.
- Its manuscript letter formation is a true preparation for cursive handwriting.
- It provides motivation for students who like the grown-up look of the manuscript letters.
