Does anyone know of any handwriting program that I can download for free? I've done some searching and only finding ones for single letters/words at a time. I'm looking for older children's copywork so whole text. Preferably one that I don't have to type in but is already done. Something like the copywork here but obviously free.

This may be the closest to what you are looking for Copywork-Aesop's Fables">

Here are some more copywork pages.

Easy homeschooling copywork


This reminds me that it would be a good idea to encourage my older children to make a common-place book (see http://www1.assumption.edu/users/lknoles/commonplacebook.htm l)

A nice lined book , in which to copy such material, a good pen, plenty of worthy reading material and twenty years later they can enjoy looking through old battered notebooks, seeing what poems, thoughts, phrases and language they particularly enjoyed (and also look at their old notes, wince at melodramtic attempts at poetry, the effects of falling in love ....and if they have done this before with pen in hand, commentary on all the above)

[I just spent several minutes looking through my old notebooks from fifteen to twenty years ago]

I should remind my children that it's a good idea to note down author and book if they don't want to spend a lot of time wondering where in the world a quote came from.
