The Sentence Copying Program, developed at the National Institute for Direct Instruction, is a supplemental handwriting program to accompany the Reading Mastery Signature Edition program. The sentence copying sheets correlate with Reading Mastery’s sequence of skill development but do not employ its orthography. Instead, they provide handwriting practice of letter forms more commonly taught in typical elementary classrooms.
Students in Reading Mastery Signature K must reach at least lesson #60 before starting the Sentence Copying Program. Worksheets may be presented after reading lessons of equal or higher numbers. (Example: sentence copying sheet #74 may be presented after reading lesson #74, 85, or 91, but not after lesson #72 of the correlating program book.).
The Sentence Copying Program books are available to purchase individually, in style sets (Block or Slant), or in a set of all four sentence copying books:
Sample: RMSE K (Block Style)
Sample: RMSE 1 (Block Style)
Sample: RMSE K (Slant Style)
Sample: RMSE 1 (Slant Style)
While Direct Instruction (DI) is designed for face-to-face, real-time interaction between an instructor and students, it can be used in a distance learning environment.
NIFDI offers a series of pre-recorded webinars and free forums to help you support your students in achieving success with Direct Instruction at the same level they would if you were in the classroom with them.
