Hello! Thank you so much for these videos about the Spelling Workout. I’m very interested in using this curriculum. The first video I watched was the walkthrough of the curriculum of you flipping through the books. It seemed like a lot of work for one week and that a child would just be trudging through getting it done. I like your simpler way of doing your lessons, I can see that it would make a student feel excited and happy to do the spelling, not overwhelmed, I can see they would have fun. I just have a clarifying question, do you only do one lesson a week then? You are just spreading that one lesson out into one week in four lessons so that they can have time to learn all the spelling words for that one lesson? If I’m correct how do you utilize the book for each grade level? Are you able to get through the entire book in one school year? If not, where do you begin the next school year…in the next level or where you left off? Thank you!

[@homeschooljoy]

Thank you for your questions!! 😊 I most likely do use the level for one school year and have a lesson per week. There are 36 lessons in each level and so that works well with a school year that has 36 weeks. And if we don’t get through it in a year, we start where we left off with it the next year. If you get behind, you can possibly do two lessons in one week to catch up or go through the summer break to finish. I use the month of June as a buffer month to get levels completed. That sometimes gets my kids motivated to work hard and finish so they can have their summer break start on time. If you choose to double up on lessons, great, but if not just stick to one lesson and go at their pace. Spelling is a subject you want to make sure they understand thoroughly. Thanks for watching!!! You are doing great things and I’m so proud of you!! 😊🌼

What would you recommend for a child going into 5th grade that I have struggled to figure out spelling for?

[@homeschooljoy]

I would seriously consider Spelling Workout for these two reasons. #1- It is so easy to implement, everything you need to teach is in the workbook. #2- The level of difficulty is a good starting point for anyone; not too hard and not too easy. If you try it and you or your child doesn’t like it, it’s not a huge loss or waste of money. Blessings to you in your HS! 😊🌼
