You can teach the child to become conscious of placing the print on the page rather than just filling up the lines. For many years, we have found that young children can create legible messages and stories without lines.
(For example, in Literacy Lessons: Designed for Individuals: Part Two, Teaching Procedures, 2005, Heinemann, Clay recommended unlined writing books for such writers/readers.) When the young writer is concentrating hard to using direct directional movements to make the letter, the lines create unnecessary distraction and constraint. Gay and Irene give their rationale with the following explanation: For beginning writers, especially those who are having motor difficulties in forming letters, problems in distinguishing letters and other aspects of print, we prefer to use unlined paper and clear, dark, washable markers. However, Marie Clay recommended it for the most struggling first graders and there has been 25+ years of success with the lowest achieving children using unlined paper for writing within the Reading Recovery lesson. We are unaware of research conducted on that specific question.
