It takes us around 10 min. total. This includes time for my kiddos to look over the passage and commit it to memory, for me to dictate the passage one phrase at a time (and them to repeat it back to me before writing), and for them to check what they wrote against the model in the guide and make any corrections. :D

Blessings,
Carrie
