A Conversation with Rita Cevasco

Working Memory and Copywork

Working Memory and Copywork:
A Conversation with Rita Cevasco

I’m excited to share Rita with you! You will love her. She’s worked for over 25 years with kids who have learning challenges, she homeschooled her own kiddos, and she is a good friend of mine (and Brave Writer’s!).

In this conversation we talk about the power of copywork to enhance the working memory! When our kids become proficient in copywork, they become efficient in handwriting which frees space for original thought in writing.

Rita walks us through a variety of practices and the brain science that validates a rich life of copywork and reading!

Grab 5 Tips by Rita in this FREE Working Memory and Copywork download
then watch our conversation below!

The Scourge of Perfectionism plus a FREE transcript!

The Scourge of Perfectionism

My son is a perfectionist. He won’t write because he’s afraid of misspelling a word.

My daughter refuses to work on math problems because if she gets one wrong, she falls apart.

I know I shouldn’t worry so much, but if I get behind, I feel really bad about my homeschool.

I can’t think straight if the house is a mess. The house is always a mess.
Hence, I am depressed and feel like a failure.

Perfectionism is the “ism” that leads us to the end of ourselves. We believe, falsely, that there is some way to mitigate problems, disappointments, mistakes, failures, and interruptions. We imagine that others are successful where we are not and then berate ourselves. Perfectionism is the ultimate “outside-in” perspective where we measure what we do against what we imagine everyone else expects us to do.

How can we dismantle this ticking time bomb before it goes off in our homes? Watch the recorded broadcast below and find out!

Would you like a text version of the scope to
refer back to, print out, and make notes in the margins?
