I used to be a die hard Spelling Power fan but since the start of the school year we have been trying AVKO. What I really like about it is that all my children are using the same list of words instead of everyone having their own and doing tests for three different students each day. Now to understand this next part you need to know that AVKO repeats words and adds suffixes and prefixes to root words as you go along.
Anyway, today we were doing the word, "beginning." Tiki claimed he didn't know how to spell the word and Neeto said, "We've been spelling this word since the beginning of starting this spelling program!" Neeto paused a moment and then said, "No pun intended."
Blue, in regular out of the blue fashion said, "None taken."
That girl cracks me up!
