Our 2015-2016 homeschool year is now officially complete!
What a blessed, busy, and productive school year we have had!
Having quite successfully completed our 5th year of homeschooling, I thought it would be neat to do a series of posts looking back over our year!
In this series, we will look back at our school year one subject at a time to see what we have done, what worked for us, and what was a big flop!
I hope you will stay tuned to this blog each day for the next week or so! Enjoy the posts!!
Today, let's talk about what we did in:
Spelling
We used Rod & Staff 3rd grade Spelling this year. Big Brother completed all the textbook work independently, and he never missed a single word on any of his weekly spelling tests all year long. I like the simplicity of the R&S Spelling curriculum. I feel like the lessons included a good mix of vocabulary practice, phonics reinforcement, spelling rules, and dictionary skills.
I do wish we had done some more hands-on spelling games/activities, and that is something we will be focussing on with AWOA next year!
Did you see the post I wrote about our LEGO spelling game? Check that out here!
