The Sassoon™ range of typefaces based on the research into children's reading by Dr. Rosemary Sassoon and fonts developed by type designer Adrian Williams. Since 1987, the partnership has produced a whole range of Sassoon fonts. Used worldwide for teaching reading and handwriting in schools, they bridge the gap between reading and handwriting letterforms. Their power and flexibility comes from the many alternative letters included with every font, which are required to satisfy the ideas preferred by different teachers.
Tracker B font, with its direction arrows helps pupils to start in the correct place.
Motor movements can be refined by keeping inside the line. When starting and direction is no problem, the arrow can be dropped and the plain
Tracker font used.
To refine motor movement,
Dotted B, with its direction arrow, again reminds pupils where to start and gives pupils confidence when tracking more closely over the dots. Larger dots mark the pen down points. When start points and direction are remembered,
Dotted, without the starting arrow can be used.
When start points are remembered, direction remembered and motor movement is sufficiently refined, pupils are ready to write what they see, rather than tracking over the letters. So, the
Line (baseline) font can be displayed and underneath, an empty baseline for the words to be copied.
Regular font can be used for text or larger display panels.
The
Medium weighted font can be used to emphasis particular letters within a word, or used at smaller sizes to make the letters heavy enough to be legible.
