Where to Find Copywork

Welcome to a week long series at Living and Learning at Home!  The ladies of the iHomeschool Network have another Hopscotch going on and my topic is copywork.  This week we have been talking about what copywork is, who should do it, etc.  I encourage you to ask questions or give suggestions at any time.  Either leave a comment or send me an email and we can discuss this topic together!

Today we will be talking about where you can find copywork to use with your child.  As your children grow, it will be easy to assign them passages to copy directly out of books, but in the early stages it is really handy to just be able to print out pages for your child to write directly on.  Here are some great resources for each of the stages.  Most of them are free, but some of the bigger packs of copywork are available for a small charge.

 Please note: I have tried my best to place the follow copywork resources in the correct levels, but it is hard to tell exactly what a page is like without printing it out and looking at it.  If you are looking for copywork for your child, please also check the level below and above the level you think they are in to make sure you get something I may have misplaced.  Enjoy!

I have started a Pinterest board to keep track of all the places we can find copywork for our children.  Come and follow just the board Copywork to Use or all of my boards at AmyJoyMaze to always know where to find copywork!  I will be adding to this board whenever I become aware of new copywork.
