mommymonster Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 DS10 is doing CLE LA 3 and is loving the cursive practice!!! We just finished the second LightUnit, and he has learned all the upper and lower case letters. (Yay!) Unfortunately, the next LightUnit goes right into copying paragraphs. It is WAY too soon for him to start that. He needs some interim practice on connecting cursive letters together. Does anyone know if there are any resources (preferably worksheets) that I could print off or make to get him from individual letters to two or three letters in a row? I looked on CLE's website and found the I Can Write book, but it appears that it is more of copying sentences (at least from their sample). Please advise! Thank you!

Insertcreativenamehere Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 We also use CLE and my son is in the same boat. I've added this workbook for extra practice. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1517359910?keywords=cursive%20workbook&qid=1445977534&ref_=sr_1_16&sr=8-16 Kara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't tell from the table of contents... Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northwoodsmama Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 We also use CLE- but for some extra cursive practice we use Cursive Writing Wizard app. It has letters but you can also make your own word lists, so I make one using the CLE spelling words. I like that they can also practice their names. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hwin Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I make my own sheets using this. http://www.worksheetworks.com/english/writing/handwriting/cursive-practice.html Very customizable - I'm using it with the Treasured Conversations copywork.

Thank you! Yes, it does have a few lines on each page for putting letters together. First, they put together two of the same letters - like u and u. Later, they make words. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TX Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I really like Pentime. CLE carries it. Susan in TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
