Opening the file I was amazed to find how well put together everything was. I appreciated the week-by-week bookmarks that I can just click and I'm at the pages that I need. The file has 368 pages, it's alot to wade through. I love that every single page has 2 versions; primary lined pages for students who are still writing in manuscript and regular notebook lines for those who are doing well with cursive. There are many different styles of pages included on about every topic. For Pocahontas there are pages with a picture of her with notebook pages. Pages that the child can draw a picture in relation to the topic and make notes and other great notebooking pages. Some topics even have coloring pages. I love that for my tag-along kindergartener.
If you follow along with the Bible part of the curriculum there are copywork pages included in the file written in italic. Although, it would've been great if there were samples of manuscript and cursive writing to make it true "copywork". There are no pages for the states studies but Currclick has other great cheap titles to choose from that can meet your needs.
Also included are pages for book reports on all the read alouds that are scheduled. A great addition and something I would've missed on my own. I love that this is written by another homeschool mom that has actually USED the Adventures in MFW and wrote it to use with her children. Overall, I think that this is a great value and an excellent alternative to the Student Notebook put out by MFW. I highly recommend it.
