Our Mission: To provide a research-based, developmentally-organized, time-efficient and cost-effective curriculum for the integration of fluent American symbolic language patterns.

Powerful Reasons:
Modern motor-control research has consistently demonstrated that good handwriting patterns could maximize learning by providing dynamic, process information to support fluency in both reading and composition. The use of symbols as a tool for learning is greatly enhanced when the user has integrated motor patterns for the symbols. Without instruction, a child must invent his or her own production process. If you can give 10 minutes of direction to your class each day, we can help your pupils maximize reading, handwriting and composition skills. The Peterson Method makes it easy! A twenty-minute Method Presentation is available on the web. You will need speakers for the sound.

Request Samples:
If your school is looking for a developmentally organized program that makes sense in terms of pedagogy and budget, use the link to request sample packs for the grade levels you would like to consider. Our samples packs contain a teacher handbook, a student text, position guide samples and a sample of pencil or pen as recommended for the level. These items are provided in a simple zip-lock bag that makes it easy to circulate.
