In Reply to: Vocab.: which do you like better and why? Wordly Wise or Vocab. From Classical Roots? Thanks! (nt) posted by Sabrina in NY
I purchased WW based on reviews from this and veg source. I got the book home and the twins tried it for a week and just did not like it. They did not feel there was rhyme or reason as to why the words were grouped the way they were.
As a teacher/Mom I liked WW.
I then purchased VFCR. This they like and I have NO trouble getting them to do their work. They like how the words are put in themes. This week the theme was sports so all the roots had something to do with sports or an action around a sport. This they understand. I also like, VFCR. Of course I like it more than WW since my kids will do this willingly and seem to enjoy it.
I have doing flash cards for the Latin roots and they grill each other. LOL
