Truscifi Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I just got the first Mega Words book for ds. Does anyone use it? What do your lessons look like? I read their explanation of how to use the program and the word lists, but then they have so many work book pages too. I guess I just want someone who has BTDT to lay it out for me.

EKS Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 I tried it with my son. We did one page per day. I think if you use it this way you can get through two books per year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaMa2005 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 We use it now. DS loves it. We do a page a day. Very easy and only takes 5-10 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 DD the Elder does a single page per day. At the end of each unit we spend a few days dictation and going through the list by groups of 25 to 30 words a day. The occasional problem word is added to the review list at the back of the book. I don't give pre-tests or use the charts since we are using it only for spelling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truscifi Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 Thanks everyone. We are going to use it only for spelling as well, mainly for the rules of syllabication. Nmoira, I like your approach. I think that will work well for us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
