Kindergarten Copywork: Word-by-Word Cover
Name:
Date:
Today I am practising: holding one word in memory before writing it
1
Read: We see a fox.
2
Cover We. Write it, then uncover to check.
3
Cover see. Write it, then uncover to check.
4
Copy a and fox one at a time.
5
Read your whole copied sentence.
6
Circle the word you checked most carefully and tell an adult why.
- Cover only a single word, not the whole sentence.
- Let the child uncover and self-correct before you name a letter difference.
- Keep the model sentence to four words so memory does not replace handwriting practice.
