ChrissySC Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 If you mean copywork with literature selections or history relevance, none that I know. However, the Dictation Day by Day for spelling can be used as copywork. I am using portions of it for spelling and penmanship. Worth looking at if you can make it work.:lol: Some resources on my blog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stripe Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Doesn't Living Books Curriculum have a book of Shakespeare? Here it is http://www.livingbookscurriculum.com/product/317.html (I think I got it as a freebie from them.) There are some on lulu from other hsers, too. I might just pull stuff from easy books. I did some from Little Bear, for example. I made some from poems too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrissySC Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I was thinking of using Dictation Day by Day, but am just looking for other options. Really, the sentences in that book tend to be pretty boring and uninteresting. Dd always wants to illustrate her copywork, so I'm hoping to find a ready source that makes her excited. She's really struggled with her fine motor skills in the past, and getting to draw something fun is her reward for completing her writing. Hmmm. Maybe what I really want is a fun book of short children's poems. Off to Google,... I will post back more once I finish assembling Simply Poetry today ... but take a look at Queen's and Simply Spelling. I wanted a mix of all types of studied spelling - using rules, using copywork, using dictation, etc. I have managed to cover spelling for the span of many years for less than 20 dollars. :lol: I am getting it all planned now. I've since added Poetry and Vocabulary using a very CM approach too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalmia Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Wheeler has an Elementary Speller that has copywork in it. The passages are simpler than his Graded Studies but just as pretty. http://books.google.com/books?id=zpQAAAAAYAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=William+Henry+Wheeler+Elementary+Speller&hl=en&sa=X&ei=s_qbT_zSBMe16AGu9dmNDw&ved=0CDgQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=William%20Henry%20Wheeler%20Elementary%20Speller&f=false Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrissySC Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 The Study Method of Spelling is completed. Geesh, I babble, so good luck! I felt that I needed to explain why along the way. It is three pages long. LOL HTH! Link me if you post similar or radically change spelling too. I might just need some of your techiniques to adapt too.:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
