Overall, I got what I wanted out of this course. Furthermore, what I learned went beyond what I expected. I can't think of anything off the top of my head that I would have liked to have learned but wasn't covered, but if I do think of something later, I can most likely find it in that handy-dandy Bedford Handbook (that I own now, because it was cheaper to buy it used from Amazon than to pay to rent it from the school bookstore. Go figure.).
And now, some spelling demons of mine.
- license
- mischievous
- onomatopoeia
- conscientious
And, as a former spelling bee participant, I list all of my disqualifying words.
- immersed (5th grade)
- (can't remember sixth grade)
- upholstery (7th grade)
- forfeit (8th grade. Not for the 'e' and 'i,' but for being so nervous about the 'e' and 'i' that I forgot the 'f' in the middle.)
