Filling in gaps: Charlotte Mason English Lesson Sheets are Free Here... From a Homeschool Mom of 15! Your child uses these sheets for spelling words, copywork, definitions and vocabulary, creating art out of grammar, and writing narrations. These are sheets that can be used with any book your child is reading. They use their fictional chapter or picture book (or McGuffey Readers) to fill out these sheets. I placed these in a folder and Avalyn can use sheets on certain days for extra English activities that she chooses.
