The most well-known pangram, or sentence that contains all letters of the alphabet, is “The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog.” Here are others (from shortest to longest):

• Amazingly few discotheques provide jukeboxes.

• A mad boxer shot a quick, gloved jab to the jaw of his dizzy opponent.

• Ebenezer unexpectedly bagged two tranquil aardvarks with his jiffy vacuum cleaner.

• Jelly-like above the high wire, six quaking pachyderms kept the climax of the extravaganza in a dazzling state of flux.

Using pangrams in daily copywork is a wonderful way to get practice in all letters of the alphabet!  The more complex sentences can be a quick introduction to new vocabulary words for both young children and upper grades as well.  Here are a couple of links to printing free copywork pages.
