    How I Create Copywork Worksheets for My Children

    September 6, 2017 by Brandy Vencel

    [dropcap]I[/dropcap] posted about this a couple days ago on Instagram, see?

    A number of people asked about this process — how do I make these worksheets? Where did I get the blank lines? Etc. I thought it didn’t seem too hard to make a tutorial, and so that’s what this post is all about. I’m also embedding this video in my old post that talks all about copywork: How I Do Penmanship {Printing — Cursive — Copywork}

    Here are a couple resources mentioned in the video below:

    And here’s the video tutorial. Enjoy!

    Educational Fontware has discontinued their individual homeschool license option? So it looks like their only option is the teacher license for $49.95. Bummer.

      I think that’s what I paid. I’ve used it for ten years so far, so five dollars a year doesn’t seem a bad price to me — probably depends on how many kids you have and how long you will use it! 🙂

          I hope it pays off as well for you as it has for me. 🙂

    Thank you! I had no idea the font came lined baaahhaa
    And, lady, if I can teach cursive at Kindergarten level to my three then you could blindfolded 🙂
    I use Cursive First and love it!

      Thanks for this encouragement. I’m gonna go for it – Cursive First!!! Starting my first 1st grader in January. Much deliberation, especially as she’s a lefty (no idea how to help her other than ease her into copy work and let her loose with it…). Taking the plunge….

      And Brandy, thanks so much for this tutorial. Now I don’t have to figure it out!
