Life Skill: Developing Your Signature

Does your teenager know how to sign their name? I have been in a few situations with my older kids where they were asked to sign their name on a document. They turned to me with a puzzled look and asked "do I just write my name?" These awkward moments sparked a desire to make sure that the rest of my children knew how to sign their name so we could avoid another fiddly moment of watching them print their name on the signature line.

A signature is an important part of your identity. Taking the time to develop your signature at a young age will be highly beneficial. In this downloadable lesson plan your student will learn about the purpose of a signature, practice developing it, look at some historical signatures, learn about the parts of a check and practice writing and signing them.
