iona Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I'm considering switching my eldest from aas to r&s spelling. He is working in level four now and in second grade. He doesn't seem to have spelling issues so I think he'd do fine with something more independent. Would going to r&s 3 next year be a step back?

boscopup Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hmmm... The words in 3 might be easy after doing AAS4 (we did R&S 3 halfway through AAS 3), BUT... the exercises in 4 get kind of hard... Though this is for next year in 3rd? It might be ok then. We started level 4 halfway through 3rd grade. Take a look at the samples online and see which one would be more appropriate for your child. Don't just look at the words, but look at the exercises as well. The difficulty is in the exercises, not the words. If nothing else, you can always try 4, and if it's too much, go back to 3 and use 4 later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tess in the Burbs Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 We went from aaa 6(finished it) to R&S 6. Word wise they could have done harder but the work is the exercises with the words. They have done fine but go back if you can and really enjoy the series. It's not so much grade level but good spelling rules and working with the words.
