LLATL and separate spelling program

[Jolash]

I need advice from veteran LLATL users. This is our first year using LLATL and I'm considering dropping Spelling WO and just doing the spelling lists in the lessons. Is there any reason not to do this?

I don't see any reason to do a separate spelling unless your ds is challenged in that area. My ds8 does the Yellow book and we are adding AAS but ONLY b/c I have it for ds10 who needs some remedial spelling work. Also, if spelling is really an important subject for you, you might want to add a separate program. There are only about 5-6 words each week and not a lot of review/practice. My opinion? You don't NEED another program but could certainly use one if you so desired.
