Homeschool Spelling

Saturday, April 5th, 2008

SpringChoosing your student’s homeschool spelling program is an important step in planning your school year. As the end of the school year approaches, we get a lot of mail from parents who are looking back at the previous year and evaluating what worked and what didn’t work.

One of the strongest benefits of homeschooling is that we have choices! We can match the method of instruction to the child. We can adjust the lesson frequency, the pace, and the amount of review to the student’s needs.

Sometimes, though, the number of choices can be overwhelming. How do you choose between the various homeschool spelling programs available? What should you look for in a spelling curriculum?

Here are some articles that will help you narrow down your choices:
