FAQ's about the
Spears Art Studio Calligraphy Workbook, Grade 5 through Adult
1. Q. Is there any difference between the hard copy and the CD?
A. The only difference is the amount of color. The CD has a little more color only for attractiveness.2. Q. Does the student need a hard copy?
A. The student needs at least 95% of the workbook reproduced, because there are letter and numeral instructions and passages with tracing pages. The workbook may be reproduced from a hard copy or CD, thereby giving each student as many copies of the tracing pages as needed. The workbook may be reproduced following the guidelines of the "Limited Reproduction Rights" statement.3. Q. Is there any advantage to purchasing both the hard copy and the CD?
A. Having both the hard copy and CD is an advantage for the instructor who wants to prepare at home and reproduce the hard copy for students nearest the copier.4. Q. The materials list from Dick Blick shows a different calligraphy marker. Why?
A. Yes, Dick Blick does not offer the same calligraphy marker shown in the workbook. The Elegant Writer broad point recommended in the workbook can be purchased at Hobby Lobby, Michael's, and perhaps other places if you choose not to order through Dick Blick. Both markers will fit the grid suggested for practice.5. Q. Are there any ways to save on reproduction costs?
A. Yes. Once students have practiced successfully with the reproduced tracing pages, they may use 1/4" graph paper in tablets for more practice. This suggestion is found in the workbook. You may also create permanent student workbooks by copying the entire workbook, placing pages in protective sleeves and in a 3 ring binder. You will still need to copy the tracing pages for them.6. Q. What is the advantage of purchasing in bulk?
A. A bulk purchase is a less expensive method than printing your own copies for each student from the hard copy or CD.
