Spelling Level A Set, 2nd Edition

I purchased this curriculum for my 2nd grade daughter. I have found the curriculum disappointing. We have come across multiple student exercises that require making copies from the appendix or online resources to complete a full lesson. Many of the 'fun' activities are written for a classroom setting and do not work for a single student. The student guide does not stand alone without the teacher guide, however the teacher guide adds little to the function or understanding of the lesson. There does not seem to be enough functional practice of the spelling words.

We are enjoying this curriculum so much. It is laid out very easy for my daughter to understand.

It didn't work well for my student. Level A was too easy but Level B was too difficult. She didn't care for many of the activities. It's a good program and would work really well in a classroom, but this particular kid felt like it was busy work mostly.

I bought this product along with several other levels for my children I have struggled to find a spelling program that works for us and found myself trying a new one each year I loved the idea behind this one but I found it to be too teacher intensive me As a mom of 4 I am on a budget and could not buy the audio so I was reading 4 different stories each Monday I spent over an hour each day teaching spelling alone I think this is a great spelling program for Christian schools and I have used many of the ideas in it but I do not think it is an excellent program for a mother of multiple learning levels

Spelling is not one of my childs strong points due to dyslexia but this program really "put a fire under her" for spelling There is very cute stories that build character included and the ideas they give you for studying and remembering her spelling words were wonderful!!!If your child is a "hands on" learner like mine they will enjoy this Does involve some worksheets but also has great hands on activities too!
