Video Modeling is a fun and effective way to teach children with Down syndrome. You can help them trace the letter on a textured flashcard. Your child can write along with the video. They may be more successful if allowed to just watch the first few times. 

Students with Down syndrome fine motor can take time to develop. This does not mean that they can not learn the strokes to form the letters. Our students use these videos to learn how to form letters. Starting at 2 years old, the formation of letters is starting to be retained into memory when they have the fine motor skills to write the letters. Finger tracing the letters on a flashcard helps with finger isolations and muscle memory to form letters.
