TABmom Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 I would love to have a resource that was a collection of well-written sentences. What I would like to do is read one a day and discuss with my kids why it is a good sentence. Maybe sometimes use it as copywork or if there was a word they didn't know, as a vocab lesson. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? (I know I could do it myself, but I really don't want to.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domestic_engineer Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 Killgallon’s Sentence Composing for _________ or any prepared copywork book. Could you, on-the-fly, pick out a sentence from your daily read aloud and analyze that? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annegables Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 I second Killgallon. Also, and this might be a bit too simplistic, but what about just picking a sentence out of The Hobbit or Anne of Green Gables or one of those children's books with beautiful language and use that? Essentially, that is what Killgallon did, but with more hand-holding😁. There are also really good sentences and vocab in Black Ships Before Troy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
