My Day....
Well, here we were: middle of the afternoon, all the one-on-one teaching done for the day and I'm working on something (probably laundry!) and down comes my daughter with a question about her independent school work.
Now, I know that she has been working on some geography and reading...and she comes up to me asking in all seriousness:
DD: Mom, which state is on a horse?
Me: Excuse me?
DD: Which state is on a horse?
We repeat this a couple of times... each time I ask her to explain her quest… Continue

Merry,
Seriously, great minds think alike! I would love to meet you!!! Here is why: I just got the same boxes for our set up last week!!! And, several times when I've been searching for how to organize something I find that you have the perfect idea…
Merry,
With my first child I thought about it and went the way of print first. No really good reason for it...I just couldn't make up my mind and did what everyone else was doing. Wow...do I wish I had taught cursive first. I know four girls age 8-…
Merry,
This is awesome! I love it and going shopping for my drawers this afternoon!!!

Ahhh....just missed it! Oh-well...maybe Level 3 will be my lucky one!
cobweb the cat! (well, that's mine...the girls all have their favorites but I'm the one typing so I cast the tie-breaker vote!)
Yes, it was a classic moment! I'm going to find a way to keep it in a scrapbook for sure! :-) Thanks for all the wonderful feedback.
I hope you are keeping this in a journal or something permanent for posterity.
We just read the book entitled Dear Deer and it is all about homophones. My 7yo thinks it is the greatest thing to trick me with homophones.
Just got mine -- ten minutes ago!!! Putting the kids to bed and then making a cup of tea to enjoy every page of the catalog with!!!
A place for us to discuss issues specific to Sonlight Curriculum.
We've used Math-U-See for four years now and absolutely LOVE it! My daughter just "gets" math in a way that I never did...and it is such a blessing. Math and AAS are the only two subjects she begs to do first thing. I really think you will like it.
Love it!!!

ROTFLOL! Oh, that is priceless! Merry :-)
Your conversation with your daughter is a classic!
That's Great!!! LOL
Pretty funny!!!

Hi Julie! All About Reading will follow the same sequence as All About Spelling (so the first book out will follow AAS Level 1). The word topics/sequence of AAS Level 1 will be followed, but the word lists will be expanded. It will include decoding…
First of all, I wanted to say that I just got my Beehive Reader today and it is beautiful! I love it! Thank you!
My question is about AAR. Aren't they all these days? So, I have a friend that is starting school in September. She has asked me…

Glad that helped! It's all so time consuming, I know. My 13 yo is in vision therapy, both of my kids need lots of one on one in various subjects--my hat is off to you teaching all of your children!!
My 11 yo has struggled with auditory processing,…
Thank you! There's some excellent ideas here. I think I will take all your suggestions for the 4yo until I can better evaluate the needs of the other two. I'm not sure whether to consider DD9 as LD/dyslexic....she's not to the same degree as her old…
LOL, very cute! It's raining cats & dogs here today, I think *I* need a rain "ponko." :-).
BTW, I asked Marie about "Nurse." In the most recent printing of L3, nurse is included in the "more words" section, and in the appendix.
Merry :-)
Hi Deidre,
Whether you can reuse the cards this soon depends on what your 9 yo needs from AAS.
The first step of every level will review all previously learned phonogram, sound, and key cards, so you will always need to "borrow" the cards back for…
Deidre,
I think you can go ahead and start with your 4yo. I like to have separate sets of phonogram cards for my kids, but I don't think most people do that. You can buy the phonogram cards separately, if you are like me. Other than that level 2 wi…
I just started using AAS 1 with my 9yo dd. She is moving through it quite quickly, and we will finish next week. My 4yo already reads CVC words fluently, and writes a lot of inventive writing (but can spell CVC words). I'm thinking of starting 4…
I have the same problem with my daughter. She is younger than your son (almost 8) and she doesn't mind writing, but she is always in such a hurry that it comes out very, very sloppy! Recently I noticed that while doing AAS she became bogged down wit…
This group is for users of All About Spelling Level 4. Our goal is to share ideas and encouragement and get to know each other.
