Both girls consistently test above grade level for spelling so I am happy and will continue with A Beka Spelling next year. The work is challenging for both girls, but they are still able to get A’s on their tests with 20-30 minutes a day of studying.
If you believe in a traditional based curriculum you should seriously consider A Beka. I know families that have used only A Beka that love it and have done extremely well with it.
If you feel confined by traditional classroom teaching with rote memorization, worksheets and textbooks, then it probably will not be a good fit for you and your children.
