This writing / spelling program was a desperate attempt to help my darling daughter break out of her, " I hate to read, I hate to write" stage when she was very young. We were homeschooling and she was the last of the four children and the only one who felt reading was a chore when all my other children adored reading and were voratious readers.

I have even begun using the AVKO process with my other children's (non-AVKO) curriculum. I really like the learning-from-your-mistakes system!!!
Following a word family approach with no stress tests, my daughter has done very well with this program. I like that you fix the mistakes when they happen instead. Will be using the next level.
