Classroom Teachers
Track the handwriting and fine motor development of your children and know exactly who needs extra support.
Handwriting is a growing problem
You see it in your classroom every day. Children gripping their pen too tightly. Children who tire after just a few lines of writing. Letters that become illegible as soon as the pace picks up. The handwriting of primary school children has noticeably declined in recent years, and as a classroom teacher you're the first to notice.
But how do you determine which children truly have a delay and who just needs a bit more practice? And how do you track whether your approach is working? Without a structural way to measure, it remains a feeling. A feeling you might share with the learning support coordinator or the parents, but that's hard to back up.
More than just handwriting
The writing difficulties you see are often connected to broader fine motor development. Children who struggle with handwriting often also have difficulty with cutting, tying shoes or using cutlery. Stimuliz helps you track not just handwriting, but fine motor skills as a whole. This way you uncover the underlying causes and can provide more targeted support.
Insight from age 4
With the fine motor and handwriting assessment in Stimuliz, you can start tracking development from age 4 to 5. Around age 5 to 6, you assess which children do not yet meet the prerequisites for handwriting. From age 6 onward, you structurally track handwriting speed and quality. The assessments are easy to administer, take little time and results are entered directly via the app.
Per child, you build a profile that lets you follow progress over the years. So you don't just see where a child stands now, but also whether your approach is having an effect.
Targeted action in the classroom
Stimuliz doesn't just give you insight, it gives you direction. The platform flags which children need extra attention and suggests possible interventions for foundational skills like tying shoes, cutting and forming letters and numbers. This lets you tailor your teaching to what your children actually need, without having to figure it all out yourself.
At class level, you see at a glance how fine motor and handwriting development stands across your group. That helps you adjust your teaching and, where needed, start the conversation with the learning support coordinator or the parents.
