Thoughts on handwriting after purchased curriculum runs out?

[krisandpaula]

I am diligently packing my file box full of hanging folders with all of my lesson plans for the year. I am going to have about 10 weeks left after my handwriting program (HWT) runs out for ds (6). I don't want to start the next book, so what would you do? I'm already incorporating lots of extra practice pages and review periods throughout the weeks that are planned. We are also using FFL/WWE and AAS, so we will have copywork and dictation built in. Should I make an effort to add in additional 'practice' for him specifically for handwriting? Are there any cute writing units out there that we could do in that amount of time? Or would you just focus on the writing that he is doing with the other subjects for the last 10 weeks and consider handwriting officially 'planned'?

 

Any opinions?

Thanks!

I would consider the copywork/dictation as sufficient handwriting practice for the final 10 weeks. If you feel you need more, there are tons of free worksheets online that you could print out.
