The Grade 6 Cursive eBook contains downloadable pdf files of
handwriting practice pages, in a font similar to that of a home school
publisher located in Greenville, NC. The sixth grade Presidential
Penmanship program consists of 108 cursive handwriting lessons
utilizing presidential quotes and a "final exam" in which the student
copies the Gettysburg Address. Quotes chosen reinforce the core
principles upon which our nation was founded and emphasize character
qualities such as self-discipline and selflessness. Following are some
selected quotes from the sixth grade program.
My country owes me
nothing. It gave me, as it gives every boy and girl, a chance. It gave
me schooling, independence of action, opportunity for service and
honor. ~Herbert Hoover

opened to the public, there will be no shutting them again. ~Grover

There are two educations. One should teach us how to make a
living and the other how to live. ~John Adams

school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in
the next. ~Abraham Lincoln

weight. ~Theodore Roosevelt
