  1. Building Spelling Skills Review by
    March 5, 2012
    Pros: Inexpensive
    Cons: Irrelevant words
    Grades Used: 3,6

    We did not like this spelling program. It was dull and old-fashioned, often using irrelevant words. Also, the activities used to learn the words were the busy-work kind. It was pretty much just busy work & memorization. Not for us. We quit half way through the year.
