Wed, 25 Nov 2015 14:28:24 +0000http://www.thecorkums.com/?p=6824#comment-287625I used SWR for K5 and 1st grade for a mathy boy whose reading lagegd his vocabulary, phonetic awareness, and spelling. He enjoyed the challenge of memorizing the flash cards, the spelling rules, and interpreting Mother’s finger-hints. Since he could spell much more complex words than he could read, it was a morale booster for both of us. The title doesn’t quite make it clear this is much more a learn to read book than a set of spelling lessons.The example sentences in the Wise Guide are often Bible-based, and one can substitute on the fly. While the author is clear on her faith, it is not needlessly repeated throughout the book.I did not do the full-court press program, but picked and chose an enrichment here and there, and tended to sit down and do all the cards, rather than fishing out the ones advised for that particular lesson. I also found the Spell to Write and Read book (not the Wise Guide) in need of a strict editor, and ran a quick pencil slash through the many extraneous paragraphs. Rather like a wet Persian cat, the meat of the program is less intimidating once it is its actual size. Look for the Quick and Dirty Guide for getting started with it for free on Lulu.I’m very glad we grounded ourselves (for really, I learned a lot, too!) with SWR, and it was a shared experience between the two of us. It would be much harder if you have a pack of kids not doing it in unison. And you do need a day of peace to read and get the flow of the program. This was perfect for me, as I’d never taught anyone anything, and it gave me a distinct path to follow while I got my pegs beneath me. Once kiddo was reading, we have moved on to a pure spelling program for that.
