Camy-7 boybarians 1 lady Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Whoever you are, I wish I could hug you. I sent my kids to Catholic Schools a few years ago (after 15 years of homeschooling). I taught 5 of my 8 children to read using RR and they are all testing high in reading. However, my 2nd grader, whom the school is teaching to read, is struggling, so I pulled him out of school. (also pulled the kindergartner) We will be starting RR right from the beginning. I found the spelling program that someone here developed and so generously shared on the old WTM General Board. I can't tell this person how grateful I am to them for being so generous to let us have access to this nicely organized spelling program!

stripe Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Where is the RR spelling program? I think RR is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 I am still using RR with SillyAutismMan - it is the ONLY way he can learn any reading at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camy-7 boybarians 1 lady Posted February 17, 2012 Author Share Posted February 17, 2012 Stripe, someone from the old board posted a download to a 44-page RR spelling program that they had written themselves. I love the way this program worked. For every sound combination/principle, there was a spelling list. This person also had a list of Spelling Activities to go with each list.

Ecclecticmum Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Does anyone have the link or download of this? Camy posted two separate threads about this , but never linked, and "the old board of 2003" I cannot find, am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shellydon Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Neat! I use RR with all of my kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matryoshka Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 :wub: RR. One of my favorite all-time homeschooling purchases! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nansk Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Does anyone have the link or download of this? Camy posted two separate threads about this , but never linked, and "the old board of 2003" I cannot find, am I missing something? The old boards are gone. These boards are from Jan-2008 onwards. But... For every sound combination/principle, there was a spelling list this sounds similar to How To Teach Spelling. You can look at samples of this book on CBD.

danybug Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I too would love to see the spelling if someone can dig it up. I bought Reading Reflex last month and totally love it. It is the first program that clicked for my dd and on top of that makes me feel confident in what we are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 You know, when I bought my copy of RR used from another homeschooling mother, she included a comb bound list of words or something that I never paid much attention to. The heading of the document reads: Phono-Graphix Word Lists for use with Reading Reflex Copyright Read America, 1999 It is 16 p long and in the font and style of most of the lists. Is there something like this in the book somewhere?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom4sons Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Can you share this previously posted organized spelling program? I am starting reading reflex. I used a portion of spell to write and read with my older children. They learned the rules and used the Wise Guide to Spelling. The system did not work for us. I have attempted to implement the entire system and it is extremely difficult. The teacher prep is difficult. My son, who is 13, appears to be dyslexic. He reads at a grade level of 4.5 to 5.0. His spelling is at a similar level. I want a program which encourages him and equips him to improve his spelling and reading levels.

atozmom Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I'd be interested in this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matryoshka Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I used Sequential Spelling as a follow-on to RR. I just explained the spelling patterns using the terminology from RR. I thought they meshed very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
