Synopsis

Similar in concept to Tuttle's successful Kanji-a-Day and Kana-a-Day practice pads, this learning tool provides an enjoyable and motivating way for the learner to practice writing Chinese characters. The practice pad comes in the form of a memo block containing basic instructions, plus 365 numbered sheets: one per day for a year of learning, or more than one per day for faster progress!In writing Chinese characters, it is essential to follow the correct stroke-order and create uniform, well-proportioned, squarish shapes, rather than rectangular or rounded ones. Constant practice in the early stages of learning is vital in order for these habits to become second nature as you learn more and more characters.Essential help in learning to write the character is provided in diagrams showing its components and configuration, and above all, the stroke-order. Around the edge of each page, a set of 28 squares allow the user to first trace the character on top of the model, and then practice writing it independently.
