Free Copywork Worksheets – Famous Sayings
Today, I have a free set of copywork pages for you. These are the types of pages my kids did when they were still in the pre-writing stages.
This set has famous sayings from Benjamin Franklin and others:
- They early bird catches a worm.
- When one door shuts, another opens.
- A friend in need, is a friend indeed.
- A stitch in time saves nine.
- A penny saved is a penny earned.
- Fall seven times, stand up eight.
- I think I can. I know I can!
- Kindness is never wasted.
These copywork pages are free to download. I plan to make some new sets in the Fall (2017). Let me know if they are helpful (or if you have something specific you’d like down the road). 🙂
Enjoy! ~Liesl
Free Copywork Pages – Famous Sayings
Handwriting: When my kids were learning to write, we used Handwriting Without Tears. That worked really well for us. My First School Book (affiliate link) is for PreK. My Printing Book (affiliate link) is the next in the series for kindergarten or grade 1 – it shows them the steps for forming the letters. This series really helps explain how to form the letters – magic c… up like a helicopter… etc.!
This post has links to some videos that show how to form some of the letters properly: Preschool at Home: Handwriting
Drawing and Copy Work: Just want to add that at this age, we also *really* loved the Draw, Write Now books. They come in all different kinds of themes and I think in the end we wound up getting four or five of them. 🙂 A few titles include from the Draw Write Now series: On the Farm, Christopher Columbus, Autumn Harvest, Native Americans, North America, Pilgrims, Animal Habitats (on land, ponds and rivers, ocean) (affiliate links) These books have instructions for drawing various pictures and include copy work as well. We’ve gotten a lot of use from these (my 3rd grader still uses these from time to time).
