This 4-metre long visual alphabet frieze provides contextualised visual cues for children to recall the 'Casey' shapes that are used to form individual letters.    Each letter is displayed in a format that  scaffolds the learning for children who are independently attempting to write letters.  The frieze provides a reference for children to access the learning that has already been embedded through the ‘Magic Caterpillar Handwriting - A Process to teach Correct Letter Formation’.  

Pictures from the story of 'Casey the Caterpillar' Handwriting Process are firstly displayed in the correct order of formation.  Beneath these pictures,  illustrations of the shapes in relation to a baseline are displayed allowing children to recall the connection of the story shapes to the shapes that combine to form letters.   A corresponding letter is a prompt for children to help them assimilate the connections.
