Christian Eclectic Homeschool Mom of Three

Tuesday, December 26, 2006 - Review for Copywork by Sandi Queen

We are using Copywork for Little Girls (Gr. 1-3) for dd 6yo and Copywork for Boys (for all ages) for ds 9yo.

I love 'em and the kids are enjoying them, too. It's their first assignment each day. The Gr. 1-3 book is consummable, but allows for younger children to copy very close to what they read. The "all ages" book is non-consummable and I have ds copy the assignment in a spiral notebook.

The assignments in Copywork for Boys are a mix of Bible verses, quotes from historical figures, historical documents, dictionary definitions, poems all with a goal, I believe, to impart to the young man good Christian morals and a biblical point of view concerning life, sin, etc.

In the Little Girls' book, there are quotes that deal with attitudes towards modesty which I know many Christians have differing opinions on. I will say so that you have an idea on how to gauge things that our family is "old fashioned" and "conservative" by the standards of some so we welcome such teachings as it affirms what my hubby and I are trying to impart to our daughter.

I highly recommend this line of copywork products as I have seen good results with my family. I hope this helps you in some way.

Hey, I love the purple! I've got to keep this copywork in mind for when I start with my daughter. Reason for Handwriting has Bible verses for practice so I like that, but not particularly geared for boy or girl.
