A Reason for Handwriting - Kindergarten

This book focuses on writing individual letters, accompanied by pictures to color, mostly of animals. A perfect fit for the beginning writer!


About the A Reason for Writing Series

Handwriting, especially in this era of word processors, is a relatively low priority compared to other subjects. However, if you are going to make handwriting a part of your curriculum, here is something to think about. 


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 Handwriting does all three.


With each 10- to 15-minute daily lesson built around Bible verses, the 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." When done with care, these completed sheets are worth sharing with friends and family. (Note: your child will get to this feature in future grades, but it isn't a part of K.)


A Reason for Handwriting uses a Living Bible paraphrase for its verses. For those dyed-in-the-wool KJV-only families, let me suggest that even this Scriptural rendition is better for your child to toil over than any trivial sentence about the environment, sports events, or popular media standard in other handwriting programs. Each workbook is full color.

Great handwriting book!

I love the “Reason for Handwriting” books. We’ve utilized different handwriting books throughout the years and these are our favorite! I love that these are biblically based with a focus on writing different verses each week. The coloring portion of the verse page is definitely a highlight as well.

This book can be taken one day at a time. One sheet front and back can take up to 10-15 minutes. My child enjoys the coloring time.

Great!

We got these to use in addition to the Channey’s that came in the kit. My son loves doing a page out of this book. Definitely recommend!

This was perfect to begin handwriting with. My daughter has loved this book. She wants to know all about the verse she writes and colors the page when she is done. It helped her so much learning to call the different lines the ceiling, floor, and ground. I'm so glad we started with this curriculum.
