Printable memory verse cards

This and the Scripture bookmark are the same words on two different rectangles, which is the entire difference between them: a card goes in a pocket and a bookmark goes in the book the verse was read out of. Six to a page here rather than three, because a card is a quarter of the height of a bookmark and a verse this length sits comfortably on one.

The passage is a setting (§12). Any entry in the library gives the identical six cards, chosen from the same picker the copywork sheets use, and a verse pasted in works exactly the same way — the sheet cannot tell which door the words came in by. Leave the passage off altogether and the cards print with three ruled lines instead, for a family that would rather write the verse out themselves, which is a better exercise than reading it. The credit line at the foot travels with the words.

Every rule, every box and every cut line on the page above is drawn as ink rather than as a background color, which is why it comes out of the printer looking like it does on screen: browsers throw background paint away unless somebody has ticked Background graphics, and a page of cut guides that printed invisibly is a page somebody cuts freehand. The lengths are in inches for a plainer reason still — a card that says it is three and three quarter inches wide is going to be measured, and a die that is not square does not fold up. The number in the footer is the seed the sheet was built from, so the identical sheet can be had again next term.

This page is one sheet out of four families that between them print the forms, the week, the paper that gets cut up and the two things that are objects rather than pages. How many rows a chart has, how many cards there are to a page, how much room each answer gets, which verse is on it and whether a tag folds are all settings — so a chore chart with six rows, or a dated calendar for next March, is the same sheet with one control moved rather than a page somebody has to have written first.

The settings travel in the link rather than on a server, so a sheet you make can be bookmarked or sent to another family as it stands — and the Name: line, where a sheet has one, is printed blank, because there is nowhere in a shared link to put a child’s name. See what we don’t collect.
