I love how quick and to the point your video was. Just an idea for tgtb spelling, let your daughter pick 2 words from that list. They can be extra credit or challenge words. Other than that, pick 4-6 words she's having trouble with in reading. Add in a fun seasonal word or something relevant to her. Say she struggled with the word 'right' and 'cuddle' this week. Make her list: cuddle, right, light, puddle, and school along with the 2 words she picked from tgtb spelling. You can create a word search, have a scavenger hunt or relay race, create a bingo card, or play hopscotch with the words.

When we used LA from TGATB we did Evan Moor Spelling skills instead of the spelling in TGATB. We liked that better.

We scrapped the spelling list (irregular words) for level 3 this year and we use 180 days of spelling... it works really well with TGTB :)

This was great!! Thank you for sharing! My kiddos are finishing out the year in public school and we will be homeschooling in the fall! (6th, 3rd, k, 2 yo) we are so excited! I need help picking out a history and science. I would like a study unit for all 3 but I know that’s kinda big gaps.

That's awesome!! 👏🏼👏🏼🎉 I think the Tuttle Twins history book would be great for your 2 bigs! You could definitely do history altogether! A lot of families do science together over big age gaps too, we've only combined 2 kids for science so far (2yrs apart), so I don't have that experience. I think your 3rd grader could still sit in with their older sibling and pick up a lot, but I would want to get a level that's for the 6th grader! We really like science Shepherd and they offer the 2 different level workbooks for the same course's videos!

We dropped spelling from TGTB and do Evan Moor instead. That was a MUCH better fit for what we needed!

We love TGATB but have always hated their Spelling, we skip it and use Spelling Workout instead. We love the Tuttle Twins to!

My son uses TGATB level 4 and IEW phonetic zoo spelling which he loves! Edit: he still does the spelling workshop, but I cross out the challenging spelling words part!

In my opinion, TGTB’s spelling is better in LA4. I didn’t care for it in LA3 either. You may want to give it a try 😊

We haven't tried TGTB math - we've only ever used MUS, so I can't give a true comparison. Sorry!!
