I like incorporating copywork into our homeschool whenever possible, especially into our science, history, literature, and Bible studies.
When I first began homeschooling, I didn’t quite understand what copywork was all about. It seemed too simple to provide any kind of educational gain. Boy was I naive!
The benefits of copywork are many –
- Penmanship practice
- Helps reinforce concepts you are learning
- Improves spelling
- Increases your child’s vocabulary
- Teaches thoroughness and precision
- A good memorization technique
- Reinforcement and teaching of grammar skills
- A model for good composition
I’ve just finished putting together a printable scripture copywork eBook that follows the letters of the alphabet. It contains 78 scriptures from the King James Version of the Bible – 3 scriptures for each letter of the alphabet. Recommended for grades 1-5.
