At our house, handwriting and spelling never get a break. Both of my boys struggle in those areas, and we do spend a lot of time over the summer working on that with them using sites like VocabularySpellingCity and LearningGamesforKids.<br /><br />Again, I really enjoyed your photos.

I do wish the lessons were divided so that the student could stop mid lesson and not start back at the beginning. We are doing major "shoring up" this summer as well. My goal is to be done early most mornings so that my boys have that sense of "summer Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14791937803209189384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289903924787320738.post-55473523634598544512012-05-20T00:46:12.568-04:002012-05-20T00:46:12.568-04:00I love Clematis and your's is beautiful!

We don't really take a summer break. Well since we are unschooling, I am not sure how that is going to work.<br /><br />That spelling game looks great. And Keilee use to love Dance Mat Typing.

I can understand why your son would maybe find it "babyish", but my girls actually seem to like it better than the Jump Start program, which we have too.<br />The spelling game sounds like fun!
