hs4ze Posted September 25, 2012 Share Posted September 25, 2012 Our 9 yo (3rd grade) has done WWE2 and we're in Week 26 of WWE3. Avid reader, oldest, just started after-schooling after 3 y of HSing. Excellent auditory and memory skills, so dictation is not an issue, and in fact has tremendously helped spelling. Resistant to writing, answers all the comprehension questions completely (although going back to re-read passage not uncommon for WWE3), still needs help summarizing, found out very early on that simplistic answers/narrations would make for shorter, easier dictations for writing. we own WWE4, but i've been considering switching programs (Fred Lybrand, CW, IEW, WS???); however, i keep coming back to why, and i feel that the summarizing skills (which is what WWE3 is trying to teach) needs help, and i'm not sure the best way to learn it. we only do WWE3 at home, and that is 2d/wk: one day for D1-2, and second day for D3-4. thoughts? ideas? thought about taking a WWE3 break and having him write a 3-4 sentence summary of each chapter of a book, but i dunno. i'm nervous to fly solo from WWE workbooks.
