SWR and Megawords

[one l michele]

Should one test out of SWR before moving on to Megawords or would it be okay for them to move into Megawords once reaching a grade 4 mastery level in SWR? If you've moved from SWR to Megawords would you share your experience?

We've used Megawords as a supplement to SWR, but not as a stand-alone curriculum. If you wanted to use Megawords as a stand-alone, I would probably finish SWR first, and then move through Megawords quickly. Megawords works well as supplement.

I may move on sooner. It really is dependent on how long I can carry the load I have next year, which is going to be the heaviest I have ever done. Megawords is one of my back up plans for lighting the load if I begin to burn out.

Though she is on list P, so if I just keep on going a bit longer she will test out...wow! It would be so cool to actually test a child out of SWR! You see I need that kind of motivation to keep me going. :D
