justLisa Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 DS needs much smaller lines I notice that some of the student text worksheets. In WWE2 the lines are slightly large for DS, and it's annoying to have to print smaller ones if I already by a student book for ease. I need the student manuals for HTTS but I cannot find a preview of the student book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boscopup Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 HTTS just has a single line. FLL3 is mostly single lines. The optional dictation has triple lines, but they're not huge. You could always write on separate paper. I make my own WWE pages in Startwrite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may not help you now, but if you have the PDF it isn't hard to shrink the pages before printing to get better-sized lines. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I no longer have to tear them out to copy AND write on smaller paper. FLL is only the student book so I didn't want to buy it if I was going to have to use separate paper. It sounds like it will work great. I don't know why they make lines SO big, especially after a 1st or 2nd grade level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLL3 has a whole big workbook, and it's big. You definitely want it. Most of the writing in FLL3 is writing on diagrams or writing in tables, neither of which have the 3-line thing. There are also some fill-in-the-blank exercises, but again, just a single line. The dictation is almost always optional, and basically not needed if you're doing WWE also. The WWE1 lines were horribly big! I had to make my own sheets for ME to write down his narrations. I couldn't write on those big lines myself. I also couldn't fit his narrations in the instructor section because of the big lines. And he wasn't going on and on. They were decent, concise narrations.

justLisa Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 Yes FLL3. I think DS would have actually started writing better long ago hand I realized he needs like half the size of most lined student papers. *I* can't even write well on those huge lines.

Yep, as I've made the lines smaller, my son has been able to write a LOT more! Amazing, isn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
