Evan-Moor Building Spelling Skills, Grade 2 - Homeschooling & Classroom Resource Workbook, Reproducible Worksheets, Teaching Edition, Spelling Strategies, Reading and Writing Skills

As a homeschooler I had tried other spelling programs that came with word lists and two or three activites per list but couldn't make them work. These workbooks while a little pricey are worth it because with an activity for each of the first four days of the week and just the test to give each Friday it helps keep a steady routine. The words seemed a bit simple at the start of the grade level to me, but now that we're further in with conjugated verbs in the list it is addressing some gaps in what the kiddos knew. You can add two words of your own to each word list which I like as well. Teacher involvement is picking the two bonus words, reading the word list Mondays for a pre-test, reading two dictation sentences for Thursday, and reading the word list off again on Friday for the actual test.

We love using this in place of our curriculum spelling. It is easy to use and helps my children learn how to spell. We love the ease of it!

The media could not be loaded. This is a quick and easy way to teach spelling! All of the pages can be removed easily for copying and I love that the whole book is reproducible. We’ve been using this for over a month and it’s been going great!

My daughter is entering the first grade this fall and I had originally purchased to 1st grade version of this book to review over the summer. That book was too easy for my daughter so I returned it. I purchased this one, but again it is too easy for her. We are into week 19 of this book and for the most part she was already able to spell 90-95% of the words in the first 19 chapters. She is not a gifted student, I just think the private school she attends is a bit advanced to other school standard. I think its still good practice and great as a refresher over the summer. If your child is a bit advanced, this book may be too easy. Just my opinion, not boasting.

Using for homeschool. Love the layout. Works well for us.

We bought two one for my 2nd grader and another for 5th grader. It is easy to follow.

I love this spelling book for my son and he loves it also!

I ordered this book and two others from Evan Moor to use over the summer. I must say that this is my daughters favorite book to use for summer slide learning. The activities are broken down into daily activities that give students to ability to build their skill. The book has a guide and "lesson plan" to help if needed. Students can take a quiz/test at the end of the week to show what they know. I will continue to use this and other grade level to help my kiddos.
