What is Handwriting Boost?
Handwriting Boost is a standalone app for modelling letter formation and creating handwriting practice. Choose a school style, make activities with your own words, present them and print practice sheets.
Who is it for?
Individual teachers, families and schools. It is especially useful for Prep, Foundation, Kindergarten and Year 1 learners beginning to form letters, and for older learners who need more handwriting practice.
Which handwriting styles can I use?
The app includes Australian handwriting styles for Queensland, NSW and ACT, Victoria, WA and NT, South Australia, and Tasmania, with beginner and cursive options. The preview on this page shows the five beginner fonts. Choose the style used by your school.
Do children write on a screen?
The screen demonstrates letter formation. Children can then practise with pencil and paper using printable activities. You can choose tracing, copying or independent practice in the app.
Can I use my own words?
Yes. Make activities with names, classroom vocabulary and short sentences. Choose a handwriting style, line size and practice level, then save, present, print or share the activity.
Does Handwriting Boost use AI?
No. Handwriting Boost uses prepared letter-formation paths and handwriting fonts. It models letters and creates practice activities; it does not generate writing or assess a child’s work with AI.
Do I need a whole-school account to get started?
No. The app supports individual teacher, home and school workspaces. You can begin with your own classroom or home learning setup. If you are setting up a school, our team can help.
