Jun. 4, 2008~ Wordless Wednesday~My First Iris's & A Weblink Wednesday~ Penmenship ~
click on graphic to go to Weblink Wednesdays at SoCalVal's
This year I have just found a way to save in penmenship and make it customised real easily ! It can be set at what ever level your child is at in his penmenship. And you can take what ever you want and make it a penmenship assignment. If it be a quote, poem, riddle, verse, you name it and it can be done !!! It is a purchased computer program that is very economical.
It is called StartWrite. I really suggest to go check it out. You can download a sample of the program to see if it is of intrest or not.
I am looking forward to this year and making what I am doing in our homeschool and make it fit with StartWrite.
Pretty flowers!!! :) The handwriting program looks interesting. Unfortunately, I already have handwriting fonts that I bought, so I'm not sure I could justify buying another one. lol! :)
Those can't be the iris' you just planted? Are they? They are lovely. I want to transplant some of my mom's this fall. I have the perfect spot for some. :-)
Have a wonderful trip. I will miss you. Take lots of pictures. Perhaps find a computer somewhere to say hello once in awhile. Good-bye!
(((hugs)))

Perfect timing! I just sent my cousin a list of writing programs and didn't send her this one. I need to go and hand this one to her, too. Thanks for sharing today. I will miss you the next two weeks. Will you have Show and Tell still?
I think maybe I have some, but they have never bloomed for me.
Start Write: I have it and have used it--mostly to print out copywork in Italic handwriting for the kids--that is the handwriting I use. I really like it.
First , I am a daughter of the King almighty and a
a wife to my Handsome of 17 years. A mom of 4 on the go boys 15, 13, 10, and 8. I grew up in the states but married my Canadian sweetheart and moved up north.
We live in the southern part of British Columbia , Canada on our homestead. We have homeschooled our four boys from birth and plan to go the distance till all four graduate from our homeschool. I teach with a Charlotte Mason style and use the Heart of Wisdom Approach. I love to craft! I am a beader, knitter, x-stitcher, quilter. We have been on a journey of being apart of building "The House that God Built". I have been recording our journey on my blog. Go to my links and you will find it. I know God has a lot more instore for us and we just need to follow where our Lord takes us.
