- 1p and q look alike but start in different places. Practise the start, not the finished shape.
- 2Say the start out loud each time (“line first, then the ball” for p; “c first, then down” for q). Children who say it while writing reverse less.
- 3Short and often works better than one long session: one row a day is enough.
