These skills are needed for them to properly learn the Islamic Education subject, apart from learning the language of the Holy Quran.The conventional methods of teaching Jawi handwriting skills are deficient in emphasizing the important aspects such as writing in correct sequences.

It is a promising aid in teaching and learning process of Jawi handwriting skills in primary schools and it can be implemented for other languages or other scripts handwriting skills as well.
