Copywork is so much more than just handwriting practice; it is a great way to learn good character traits, to learn about historical people or events and to experience wonderful works literature. We received a Lifetime Membership to Homeschool Copywork in exchange for my honest review.

How Did We Use Homeschool Copywork?
Brock is playing the part of Abraham Lincoln in an upcoming play that is being put on by our homeschool group. This has piqued his interest in all things Lincoln so the Thanksgiving Proclamation by Abraham Lincoln was a wonderful fit for him.
Adisyn has been learning about Mozart therefore I chose for her to work on Mozart copywork. This particular copywork contains quotes from Mozart on a variety of subjects.
Eli, Rebekah and Quinton have been working on the Rainbow study. There are large print pages which also have a picture to color which are perfect for Quinton (and even Hannah has insisted on having one also.) There are also longer, more in depth pages which suit well for Eli and Rebekah. The art work in The Story of the Rainbow Copywork is absolutely beautiful as well. 
What Do We Think of Homeschool Copywork?
The kids have enjoyed each of their copywork pages. I like that there are so many subjects to chose from, this made it easy to chose a topic that they would be interested in. The nice thing about the Lifetime Membership is that in addition to the options that are currently available, any new material that is added in the future is also included in my membership.
