Logic Stage: Spelling, Grammar, Reading and Writing

January 28th, 2008

This is the hardest subject for me to come up with a great program. Neither Camille nor I find it to be a thrilling subject.

Spelling:
TWTM suggests using Spelling Workout F and G and from what I see, it should meet our needs for spelling. For Camille, spelling is more about breaking words down then memorizing spelling rules.

Grammar and Writing:
I’m a little frustrated with this one. Rod and Staff is what TWTM highly recommends, and it looks great, but it is absolutely not secular. I think we’ll probably use Voyages in English and then Writing Strands.

Reading:
Camille reads more than enough for history and for fun. Probably TOO much. She has excellent comprehension and retention, and I don’t want to mess with what works! I hope to tie in the writing above with her reading.

      We are using Spelling Workout here for the first year, and I really like it.
