Category Description for Draw-Write-Now
Draw-Write-Now combines art instruction with handwriting practice and incorporates more than a little history and science instruction along the way. Based on a successful formula created by a former teacher to inspire her students, these inviting books might become your child’s favorite part of the school day!
The books are non-consumable, as your child will do the
actual artwork and writing on separate paper or in the optional workbook. Each
book is divided into three themes with a total of 21 lessons. In each lesson, a
colorful picture shows the author’s model artwork, with neatly penned text on
ruled lines underneath. Step-by-step drawing instruction for the main object in
the picture is contained on the facing page. Usually, this begins with basic
shape(s), and then details are added a little at a time. Text is informational
and in short sentences.
After the handwriting is finished, your child can color the picture with crayons, colored pencils, or felt tips. Additional lesson-specific drawing tips and suggestions are offered in the Teaching Tips section.

My son was coming up to 5 but fully in the swing of homeschooling and yet drawing anything and writing anything were two skills he just hated doing Sometimes we'd have temper tantrums over just the thought of being required to do either of themI know he was probably just developmentally challenged and it was very early for him to be doing these fine motor skills but then one day I brought him a Draw Write Now book because he wanted to do a unit study on transport and this book showed easy ways of drawing cars planes trains etcFirst he tried the astronaut following its instructions meticulously Next time he drew it he followed the book again and then he knew how to do it without the bookSuddenly he was hooked He drew and drew and drew We now own three volumes and are soon to purchase the rest as it has freed him up to be creative in drawing that otherwise he didn't have the skills to know where to startThe writing part still hasn't taken off though sometimes he'll put a sentence or two into his Draw Write Now workbook that's to come I'm sure

The Draw Write Now books have proved to be very educational engaging and enjoyable for our whole family We started off buying just one of the books and then kept adding more of them to our collection Now we have the entire set! My four year old son enjoys tracing the animals and listening to his 11year old sister read the little narratives that go along with each lesson My six year old daughter feels proud to trace a drawing and the notes that go with it rubber cement it onto colorful paper and present a beautiful school sample She learns art appreciation art practice history science penmanship reading paragraph strategies spelling and if she reads her report out she learns to deliver a speech as well! All of this with little or no teacher help My eleven year old daughter has used these books from time to time since she was six She still loves them and goes back to them as reference books to refine or learn new drawing and language art skills The books have sparked a love and curiosity for learning in all my children They work for all ages and help develop different skills as needed My children simply fix a piece of tracing paper over a lesson with temporary adhesive and start tracing They have used these books even when not doing school officially My children feel successful using these books; they feel proud and encouraged from their results and are gaining both knowledge as well as artistic and writing skills in a fun creative and imaginative way!

need drawing books on historical subjects
Goes great with "Stories of Great Americans for Little Americans"

We have some of the other books and my girls enjoy them. We are studying US history next year and I thought it would be nice to connect more of our subjects.
