No More Tears Spelling

Having trouble with spelling words?

Here is a website homeschool should never be without. Whether you have a spelling curriculum or just want your child to learn some words that they struggle with, I recommend using a free online program called Spelling City. It’s really free no catch and no trial offer.

Your children will learn their spelling words without realizing it. The site give you three options. Practice, Play games, Test. You add your own word list, and you add by groups of 5 words at a time. You can add all 20 (or more) spelling words at one time. I have a friend who adds five words per day the harder ones first. Her daughter can practice and play different games all week. She adds a few more words each day. Then on Friday she runs through the test. You can actually test sooner if your child feels comfortable with the new words. The best part is you use your own words and you decide how many and how long to practice before testing.

Great site, great fun, especially for those kids who struggle with spelling. Again the link is http://www.spellingcity.com

New Favorite Free to Read Books

Let’s face it there are times when we get interupted and we see that are the kids are starting to slip away from what they are doing. This read to me website is especially nice for children who are less likely to grab a good book and go read it. For those times let me recommend this website for reading. It’s called OneStepHigher.com I think the entire Beatrix Potter collection is on this site, Raggedy Ann, and Tom Sawyer as well.

I am sure that you have all seen a pdf book or two, free online however, this set up is fantastic, these are flip books that really look like books. The book keeps kids attention by reading along aloud as it highlights the text and has wonderful classical pictures children love. I really think it helps the younger reader to keep a rhythm or steady pace yet the story book can be stopped and started right in its place. Of all my free book websites – I have to say this is my new favorite.

Find Catholic Curriculum with Free shipping

Looking at Catholic Curriculum for next year. I would like to recommend a company called Sacred Heart Books and Gifts.[singlepic id=17 w=320 h=240 mode=web20 float=right]

I found this company last year when I was looking for Saxon Math 2. I really like them, maybe it was because I have a devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus that drew me to the Sacred Heart Books website or maybe it was where they are located, having come from the Midwest. I recently discovered that they are now carrying materials for Catholic Charlotte Mason users. They also have curriculum supplies available for Mother of Divine Grace and many others. There website is dedicated to families and especially one single income families; they keep their prices low! You can find discount prices on Catholic Curriculum from their website all year long. They offer FREE SHIPPING on orders over $25.00 and less than $5.00 on all orders under $25.00. That is a pretty awesome deal for those concerned with purchasing books yet still having funds enough to cover the sometime high cost of shipping.

Before going to Amazon to buy your books check Sacred Heart Books and Gifts out. Their prices are very reasonable. You know the books are new and the best part is FREE SHIPPING with orders over $25.00. You are also helping a fellow Catholic Servant who is to helping Catholic home schoolers.

Wholesome Girls websites

With so many websites trying to grab our children’s attention and influence their attitudes about life, style, and so much more…

Here is a list of some wholesome decsent girl websites I found for girls who are beyond PreK stuff but not ready for the teen world.

Philomena Girl – St. Philomena or Filomena as they say in Italian, was the little Saint behind this wonderful website. A place to be a girl and be with God. It’s a very wholesome Catholic girl website. They talk and show how to dress modestly, you will find a music section with a guide that help you choose music groups that suit your style. Their is a litany of prayer section and more. I think you will really like this site if you have a daughter between the ages of 6 – 16.

EWTN Kids Club – A Catholic website for kids. You do have to have This virtual neighborhood has a church, nun that sing, a school, families and their homes you can visit. Dress the little baby and a bunch more. It’s really a an entertaining website for your children and one you won’t have to worry about them being on. They even have TV shows for kids. You can go on to this site with or without joining the club. It’s free to join and they don’t try to sell you anything or bombard you with emails. They will however send parents an email stating that you child wants to join and you must grant the request in order for them to join. This site is great for children ages 4-12 easily.

Little Flower Girls Club – Here is a link to a popular Catholic girls club. You can find craft and activity books, supplies, leaders guides, flyers, badges, and everything you need to start a virtueous girls group.

Precious Girls Club – Free to join it a wholesome girls virtual community. There are different levels of membership you will pay for a premium membership. But the free one is just as much fun.

MyFriend – The official Catholic Magazine for kids. I don’t know why they call it a magazine because it’s a really fun website for Catholic children. The daughters of St. Paul put out this Pauline kids website that includes games, jokes, puzzles, stories, music and even movie reviews.

Secret Keepers Girl SKG Cute Christian based website. A few entertaining games, they discuss dressing modestly with the body squad, God plan for you.

True Girl online is no really a workable website. They sell a magazine subscription through this site. It’s more for the 12 – 18 year old crowd. They also cover dressing modestly. They got some great links within their site.
