Anyone know of software that can convert text into penmenship practice format?
|
Hi Everyone. I have a quick question. Is there software avaliable that can turn text into penmenship practice for students, which includes the dark line at the top and bottom of the text and the dashed line in the center? I �ve looked through my Publisher and Word programs, but cannot find a way to convert text to this format. I can of course make large print, in a very light grey that they can trace over, but i �m trying to make the point of consistency. The bottom line is I �m hoping to get the kids to practice their penmenship, while also reading a story. Or at the very least try and come up with some more interesting things for them to write while practicing. Any suggestions? Thanks, Daryl

1) You can buy a CD with such fonts from fonts4teachers. I use it and it �s really cool!
2) Go to DLTK-kids.com. the theri alphabuddies section they have an array of useful materials. Also they have several sister sites (look at dltk home page) and one of these offers making ws you talk about on line and then print ou. 3)Try googling for free fonts and looking up there. |

Thanks everyone! After asking last night i found this online site, but it �s a limited to one paragraph at a time. It works, but your sites are much more effective!Thanks again! -Dar |
