Pinch the Pencil is more than a standard tracing book; it is a gateway to confidence. By focusing on the synergy between writing and reading, Newman's method helps children master essential sight words while developing impressive penmanship.
The results of Newman's approach speak for themselves. Students using the Pinch the Pencil curriculum have demonstrated exceptional reading rates and a heightened sense of creative awareness. The book is a culmination of Newman's career-long mission to provide a pleasant, stimulating environment where every child, from special education to advanced learners, can thrive.
About the Author
Carol A. Newman, M.A.Ed, is a San Diego-based educator, nurse, and inventor with a lifelong passion for child development. Currently teaching students from preschool through sixth grade, Carol specializes in building rapport with her students by integrating their personal interests into their curriculum.
Her unique teaching philosophy has personal roots: her own children skipped kindergarten due to her early-education techniques and have gone on to graduate from prestigious institutions including Princeton University, USC Marshall School of Business, NYU Tisch School of the Arts, and NYU Law.
In addition to her work in the classroom, Carol is an accomplished poet, artist, inventor, and private school administrator. She is currently developing a series of children's reading books to further inspire the next generation of scholars.
Pinch the Pencil Sight and Write is dedicated to the author's son David T. Diamond, daughters Candice Amber McLean, Samantha A. A. Chen, and Katrina E. A. Ciurliza. This workbook is available now for parents and educators looking to take the first step in securing their child's academic success. Can your child read and write at three years old? Yes!
