Spelling You See - Level D

I didn't like this curriculum. I found my daughter was rushing through writing everything and not really learning to spell just rushing through it fast.

I love spelling you see and am continually impressed with the content. My 3rd grader struggles with spelling and this has been a help in catching him up. I plan on using the curriculum throughout the summer and thanks to how it is set up it won’t be for very long (10-15min per day). Sometimes we don’t finish an entire lesson but shorter times have helped keep my son interested. My only complaint would be the amount of writing. I have modified in taking some of that work and making it verbal work (have my son say rather than write). Writing is a struggle so cutting that by half has helped.

I had the same issue with this one as I did with the lower level and my younger child. It's a lot of writing. Some children are natural writers...some are not. This is not for children who are not just naturally drawn to writing and drawing and all things pencil.

We saw our son improve from averaging D's and hating to write to A's and B's! This was our first year Homeschooling so we relied on Timberdoodle to help us pick and this was a winner. He loved writing about interesting subjects that kept his attention and made spelling enjoyable for the first time.

We have been using SUS since the beginning starting with level A. It has been very helpful for our little one both improving her spelling and handwriting. We have been enjoying how this level begins to incorporate History into the spelling process. It is very easy to open and go for the teacher. Very user friendly.
