Have you guys heard of Megawords? It has worked well for us. I think it starts in grade 4. It is very plain and simple. Teaches the syllabic, decoding way to spell! I pick the words I want them to spell and have them write in a notebook a few times every other day. We do daily spelling bees with index cards.
I have spelling you can see, but haven’t opened it yet 😅. Thanks for the heads up for the review. Our family loves 180 days. It’s easy on budget but very impactful.
Some love spelling you see but not us 😂 I was so desperate with my middle that I offered it to her and she didn’t like the thought of it either. Yes! I thought 180 days of spelling and word study was great!
They did, we used it more for like review type stuff in the summer, we liked the spelling you see but we've ended up just using the spelling through Abeka.
Thanks for sharing this. We have a struggling speller and i feel like we’ve tried so much but haven’t come to one that we love although what we’ve switched to now seems okay for him. I may have to check out soar with spelling more.
Thank you for showing off so many spelling options! My 9 year old is a pretty strong speller, but needs more assistance with spelling "rules". I'm looking primarily at 180 Days or Soaring with Spelling due to costs. Do you know if either of them go over any of the spelling rules? We've been doing word lists for months which is fine but I would like to see if we can add a little something more for him!
So they both probably have about the same amount of instructions. Here is a sample of 180 days: www.teachercreatedmaterials.com/estore/files/samples/28632s.pdf And here is a sample of JacKris-Soaring with Spelling. cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2659/7062/files/sws4_sample_lessons.pdf?3568484626439355145 Hopefully this helps!
