faiths13 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 (edited) sorry I am still new here, lol. I found a LA program about a month ago Learning Language Arts Through Literature. I really liked the copywork part of it and that was the first time I saw anything like it. Are there any books like that for just copy work - that have classic lit and arent religious? (my charter wont pay for it). Or maybe something that has just interesting quotes or poems or something along those lines? Im also looking for something for cursive writing. We are using the Getty Dubay Italics books and I like them alot. I would like my kids to also work on cursive as well though. thanks!

Carpe Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 We do GDI, but I make my own. Bought the font and type out whatever I like. Thus far, he'll only write 3 or 4 letter words. This week bed, red, blue, dad and [his name]. I'm slowly collecting words, quotes, and poems for when he's older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspasia Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Rainbow Resource has some Italic cursive workbooks here and here I don't know of any copy books with quotes or whatever (though I do feel like I've seen them somewhere.) What I did is I bought the StartWrite software so I can make my own copy work pages. If you buy it through Homeschool Buyers Co-op, you get 25% off. It has Italic and Italic cursive (along with a million other fonts!) Then you can just get one of those quote books and use those to make your copy work. Or you can use passages from what your kids are already studying, to help reinforce it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeaganS Posted December 18, 2011 Share Posted December 18, 2011 Currclick should have tons. Just search "copybook." Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cholderby Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 I make my own with the free ZB worksheet maker That way I can reinforce what we are working on. They get punched and tossed in a 3 ring binder. BTW, we actually use HWT for handwriting but that hasn't bothered DS at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
