Rainbow Writing

Pipiri loves to write!

She makes tons of lists just like me....grocery lists ...things she's going to give up (like Lent)...things she likes...things to play with...

She also writes in her unlined Main Lesson Book (mlb) like these two...8x8 unlined notebook Or this type.. Large flat lying notebookseveral times a week.

Sometimes I write using a pale yellow LYRA Ferby Pencils  (these pencils are the best ...we have had ours for 3 years and they make beautiful art work and letter making) and then she traces over my writing. 

We do this with vocabulary words from whatever book we are reading. We also do main ideas, settings, narrations, characters, drawings...most everything goes into her MLB. 

Another super cute way we write is by using the pale yellow LYRA Ferby Pencils again...and then she does "rainbow writing". 
Basically, she uses her LYRA Ferby pencils making each letter a rainbow.

Some letters she traces the entire letter using one colored pencil then she goes back over the letter with another color. 

Other letters she traces different parts of the letter with different colored pencils. 

She LOVES writing the RAINBOW way!

 It's her favorite!

If you have a child that doesn't want enjoy writing...try the rainbow way.
