Dictation works...

Post by Marsha » Thu Feb 04, 2010 10:23 pm

We use dictation for Spelling and my 13 year old(8th grader) won the 7th/8th grade for the County.
She lost the next round to go to Regional, but she did great.
She won the 7th/8th for county last year too.

Marsha,

Congrats to your daughter on her spelling skills! :D It's exciting to hear about dictation working well in a variety of situations and ages. :D Letting go of a formal spelling program was hard for me to do, but we've found that our boys are excelling with dictation too. :D

Thanks for sharing!

Blessings,
Carrie

Marsha - A big congratulations goes out to your dd! :D I agree - dictation does work, if we just let it. :) I had to learn that myself. :) Thanks for letting us know about her success and good luck to her the next year too! :D
