Engage the Hands and Heart with A Reason for Handwriting
Welcome to Timberdoodle's A Reason for Handwriting collection! Handwriting, especially in this era of word processors, is a fairly low priority compared to other subjects. However, if you are going to make it a part of your curriculum, here is something to think about. For over a dozen years we sold and used another handwriting program. The end result for us was less than stellar, as I would question the time spent on copying meaningless sentences. Because we know that handwriting is a learned motor skill requiring regular practice, doesn't it seem that if your child is going to labor over something with his mind and hands, he should also engage his heart? A Reason for Writing does all three.
With each 10- to 15-minute daily lesson built around Bible verses, content is not only instructional, but also inspirational. Plus, at the end of each week your children will be given the opportunity to apply excellence to their work as they copy their verse-of-the-week onto their choice of "Scripture Border Sheets.” Done with care, these completed sheets are worthy of sharing with friends and family.
A Reason for Writing uses a Living Bible paraphrase for its verses. For those KJV-only families, let me suggest that even this Scriptural rendition is better for your child to toil over than the trivial sentence about the environment common in other handwriting programs. Each workbook is full color.
