We also have used SWR for.... ever. I actually own the original, first edition, Teaching Reading at Home, as well as the first edition WISE Guide. I could, maybe should, upgrade to SWR, but why fix what isn't broken? :) I remember one school year, we began doing foster care and when we received our first baby, I simply could NOT do spelling with my girls. I spent two evenings, stayed up late, and recorded every single spelling list on a tape recorder... dictated the words AND the corrections, markings, everything. That's what we used that year and it was well worth the time that it took. Your clue cards are something that I hadn't thought of. Great ideas! I love the premade spelling books!

I will have never heard of this curriculum. I will tell my family about it. Are those pictures taken in your school room? The room looks so neat with so many books. I love books, ecspecially old children's books, they are my favorite. You have a very nice blog. It was nice to come visit your blog. I found your blog through This-n-That Needlework. Belle Hi,

I've been currently looking into purchasing (or saving for) a spiral binder. I've spent enough over the years at our office supply store for them to bind our notebooks that I could have bought two. LOL. Some of our history notebooks even broken down into four units/quarters get as many as 150 sheets.

Thanks for the hint about printing off the table of contents to the HSTracker. I am still thinking of purchasing their book that goes along with it. Please keep us posted as to your progress with using both. Hi Debra,

I, too, had tried it years ago, but it didn't fit with our flexible schedule....and flexible curriculum! In Texas, we don't have to maintain any strict records, so I just ditched it! So my "wants to be more organized" side can't wait to hear how it works for you! Looking forward to hearing more about your experience with HST!
