personal experience ... N2 is time to start to write ... start with tracing, then free writing of letters, then putting the words together. at K1, more writing will come in and kids should start to do copywriting. My #1 started to have spelling in K1 term 3 and eventually by K2, they should be used to writing and able to form words and sentences well ... focus on getting the letters like d, b, r, n, z, 2 right ... once the strokes are there, it's quite difficult to change. there would be other 'simple' stuff to focus on like remembering to start a sentence with a capital letter and ending with a '.' ... btw, my #1 was in a more academic kindy environment n now in P1, he is not against writing and homework as much as some other boys I see, but for girls, somehow their handwritings are much better even if they are in a more play-based kindy environment.
