Free Handwriting, Copywork, and Writing Resources

May 8, 2013 By Thaleia 4 Comments

 

While public schools across the country are dropping Handwriting it is still very much a part of a homeschoolers curriculum. It has come to my attention that Handwriting can become a costly endeavor for families. The choices are astounding and it seems that a new program pops up every 3-5 years or so. What does a family on a budget do?

Free Handwriting, Copywork, and Writing Resources

If you cannot afford a curriculum or if the curriculum you bought no longer works for your family then you need to utilize the resources in this post! I have scoured the internet in order to find a variety of Handwriting resources to fit a variety of students needs. I have included preschool as well as a variety of font choices for Elementary students. Some free Copywork resources have been added at the end for extra resources. I hope you enjoy these and find what your child needs!

    These are Wonderful resources. However, I was disappointed to see an absence of the Getty-Dubay Italic form of handwriting on the sheets. So far I have only found some free at GuestHollow.com. I did not originally learn this form but have taught it to myself and my children and am teaching it to the students I have now. It is easy, involves minimal change of letter form from basic print to cursive, extremely legible and also pleasant to view.

    Nareda, There are very few places that offer FREE Getty-Dubay Italic worksheets without purchasing a program or book. If I find new printables I will update the post.
