Furthermore, the children are learning two foreign languages , and we dabble in Latin and Greek for the purpose of building vocabulary. My daughter knew most of the vocabulary words in her SAT prep book, so our method is working for us. It's not for everyone, though, and that's the great thing about homeschooling. We can cater to the moms as well as the kids. :) Annie Kate We've never used Wordly Wise or any other vocabulary curriculum (other than some advanced spellers), but we read very widely.

I looked at them once, and then.... well honestly forgot about them! Thanks for the reminder. If you happen to have a right brained child. One who tends to struggle with something just like wordly wise, you might look into Vocabulary Cartoons. A2 is SO right brained, and she loves these! Makes it come alive for her. When she has to work a workbook, her brain actually shuts down. All the repetition bogs her down, just as a computer might get bogged with too much information. I assume A3 will love wordly wise though... isn't that the best part of homeschooling...catering!!! A1 LOVES Wordly Wise, I will have to look into the online tools.

I have been using it for years, and my children love it. I even have a public school teacher friend using it to supplement in her classroom, and to challenge her own children during the summer months. It is a wonderful curriculum!
