The Series

Each book in The Charlotte Mason Handwriting Series provides the guidance you and your child need to take the next step in learning handwriting. Choose from Classic (Zaner Bloser) or Slanted (D’Nealian) handwriting styles.

Capitals

For beginners, the Capitals course introduces capital letters using the large muscles, gradually inviting the child to learn to write with a pencil. These lessons are perfect for young children who are still developing fine-motor skills.

Print

Take the next step into learning to print the lowercase letters and put it all together by practicing words and sentences. Using the Charlotte Mason method of copywork, your child will learn to give his best effort to the lesson while copying meaningful poetry and interesting sentences.

Cursive

Learn to write cursive letters by copying passages from Proverbs. The Cursive course also gently introduces your child to transcription: the skill of copying a passage word by word or phrase by phrase.

Cursive Practice

Continue practicing cursive writing and transcription with delightful selections from classic literature. Cursive Practice gives your student two volumes that gradually guide him from writing on larger 5/8″ practice lines to notebook paper-sized lines, preparing him to take the next step into spelling and English lessons with Using Language Well.

Two Handwriting Styles

This book is available in Classic (Zaner Bloser) or Slanted (D’Nealian) styles. Choose whichever style you prefer. The Classic style is written straight up and down in printing and slanted in cursive, while the Slanted style is written at a slant in both printing and cursive. Classic uses two different styles for printing and cursive, while the Slanted style transitions to cursive by connecting the print style letters.

Comparison to Previous Simply CM Handwriting Books

The Charlotte Mason Handwriting Series replaces the previous handwriting books published by Simply Charlotte Mason: Delightful Handwriting, A Child’s Copybook Reader, Print to Cursive Proverbs, and Hymns in Prose Copybooks.

The new Charlotte Mason Handwriting Series uses the same Charlotte Mason methods of learning strokes first and copywork with meaningful passages. The new series is simplified with a single book for each grade level, and it provides more guidance for the teacher with step-by-step lessons and visual demonstrations for forming each letter.
