1
This is handwriting lesson number one, lines and circles.
2
Today we're going to begin by noticing how your printing paper is set up.
3
There's a line at the top,
4
which we'll call the top.
5
there's a line at the bottom which we will call the bottom and in between are a series of dashes
6
that we'll call the dashed line or we'll call the middle.
7
You're always going to place your letters inside these lines.
8
Today, we're going to just begin by practicing lines and circles.
9
When we make lines, when we're printing,
10
we always start at the top.
11
There's a little song you can sing,
12
and it goes like this.
13
I always start my letters at the top.
14
I always start my letters at the top.
15
I always start my letters.
16
I always start my letters.
17
I always start my letters at the top.
18
So when you make lines,
19
you make lines from the top down.
20
Go ahead and get your printing practice paper and start making lines with me.
21
Start at the top and go all the way down to the bottom.
22
You want to make sure your lines touch the top and touch the bottom.
23
We only ever go in one direction direction.
24
I always start my letters at the top.
25
So go ahead and take your time and make a whole row of tall lines here.
26
Check your paper.
27
Are your lines straight?
28
Did they start at the top and end at the bottom.
29
Now let's make a series of short lines.
30
When we do short letters and short lines,
31
we start at the dotted line and we go down.
32
So the rule still applies and we can sing our song.
33
I always start my letters at the top.
34
Well here we could say at the dotted line.
35
You always want to make sure you're going from the top down,
36
pulling downward like you're falling into the water, splashing down.
37
Starting here, going down.
38
So say it to yourself.
39
down, down.
40
Make sure you start at the dotted line so your pencil
41
or dry erase marker touches the dotted line and you go to the bottom line.
42
Don't start above and don't go below and get kind of messy.
43
You don't want those.
44
You'll start right at the dotted line and end at the bottom.
45
Go ahead and make a series of short lines on this row.
46
Make sure your lines are straight.
47
Great.
48
We're going to do two more types of lines.
49
The next lines we're going to do are going to be diagonal lines.
50
That means we're going to start at the top and we're going to go diagonal to the bottom.
51
A diagonal line goes in this direction.
52
So we're gonna go halfway on this line with tall diagonal lines and then we'll switch.
53
So you're gonna start at the top and you're gonna kind of go over to the bottom.
54
diagonal, diagonal line.
55
Start at the top, go over to the bottom.
56
Let's do one more.
57
All right, now we're going to switch and we're going to do the same diagonal line,
58
but we're going to do it from the dotted line to the bottom.
59
diagonal, diagonal, always start at the top,
60
go down, go down, down,
61
down, down, let's do one more.
62
Good.
63
Okay.
64
The last type of line we're going to do today is another diagonal line,
65
but we're going to go the other direction.
66
We're going to start at the top,
67
but we're going to go diagonal this way.
68
I always start my letters at the top.
69
I always start my letters at the top.
70
Take your time.
71
I'll do one more tall one.
72
Okay.
73
Now we're going to switch to lowercase, two small diagonal lines.
74
Good.
75
Start at the dotted line.
76
Take your time.
77
Go down.
78
Good.
79
When you're printing, you want to print nice and slow.
80
Take your time.
81
there's no rush.
82
Good.
83
All right.
84
Well, we just finished our whole line,
85
our whole page of lines.
86
Excellent work.
87
We're going to continue our lesson now with making some circles.
88
So what I'm going to have you do is erase the lines you made.
89
Erase your beautiful lines and make some space for circles.
90
All right, so now we're going to practice making circles.
91
When we make our circles,
92
we have to pay attention to the same thing as our lines.
93
We will pay attention to the top line,
94
the bottom line, and the dotted line.
95
Our circles are going to stay inside these lines.
96
One of the most important things about circles is that many of our circles,
97
many of our letters start with a circle that goes the same direction.
98
And that circle is going in this direction.
99
Around the clock it would be called counterclockwise.
100
On your hands it's called to the left the left,
101
but we're going to make our circles around in that direction.
102
Just like with our lines,
103
our circles start at the top.
104
So we get our pen,
105
our pencil, our dry erase up here at the top,
106
and we're gonna go around this way.
107
So I always start my letters at the top.
108
Big circles start at the top,
109
they go around to the left,
110
part of the circle touches the bottom,
111
and then it reconnects back at the top.
112
We don't just start our circles anywhere on our paper for circles that look like this.
113
It's really important to start at the top
114
and And go around this way.
115
So get your printing practice ready with me.
116
Put your pencil or dry erase up at the top.
117
Make sure you're pushing to the left.
118
Touch the bottom line.
119
And go back up.
120
Good.
121
Let's do that again.
122
I always start my letters at the top.
123
Good.
124
You'll really want to take your time with these circles to make sure you're going in the right direction.
125
Let's do one more big one up at the top.
126
Make sure you're going around this way towards all those other circles you made.
127
Back up.
128
Good.
129
Okay.
130
On the next row, we're going to make some lowercase circles,
131
some small circles that start at the dotted line.
132
So put your pencil or dry erase marker at the dotted line.
133
We're going to go in that same direction around.
134
Start at the dotted line.
135
You're going this way to the left around this way.
136
Touch the dotted line.
137
Touch the bottom line.
138
Back up.
139
Touch the dotted line, touch the bottom line, back up.
140
Go nice and slow.
141
Finish this row of circles.
142
Dotted line, bottom line, back up.
143
Good.
144
All right.
145
Well, that's the end of our handwriting lesson number one, Lines and Circles.
146
Keep practicing and I'll see you next time.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
