Zeezok Publishing ~TOS Review

I received a Presidential Penmanship CD, from Zeezok Publishing, to review. You have probably heard of Zeezok Publishing. They sell The Great Musicians Series. I did not realize they had other wonderful resources, so I was happy to receive the Presidential Penmanship CD-ROM. This Complete Program CD-ROM contains handwriting practice pages for first grade through senior high and sells for $39.99, it comes in six different handwriting styles [I received the Italic style]. It is also available in an E-book format for $9.99 per grade level.

I decided to use this product with my son, so my focus for this review is on the 2nd grade pages. The CD-ROM is broken down into each grade level, so I printed out the 2nd grade level and made a 'copywork book' for him to use daily. My son enjoys studying the presidents, so he really enjoys having this book, knowing each quote came from some of his favorite presidents! And having an uncle named Thomas Jefferson makes it extra cool!

In the 2nd grade pages, the child copies 36 quotes centered around the founding principles of the United States and character qualities such as honesty and hard work. These quotes are short enough to memorize, so together we chose a quote for him to memorize [one every three weeks; two per six-week term]. I allowed him to choose the ones he wanted to memorize, which made it more personal and motivating.



Here are the two he chose to memorize, [past six-week term]:

1. "It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the Bible." ~George Washington
2. "He who knows best knows how little he knows." ~Thomas Jefferson
   

Things I like about this CD:

1. All grade levels on one CD-ROM...print off only what you need!
2. Can be used for all 4 of my children, all 12 years...great deal @ only $39.99!
3. Delightful, 'meaty' quotes that are well worth memorizing!
   
4. Short daily lessons that tie history & character into copywork.
5. Meaningful penmanship practice...no boring drills!

Here are some sample pages to view.

Now is the time to begin planning for next year's curriculum. You will want to add Presidential Penmanship to your *must have* list! I know you will love it!
