I've never heard of dictation day by day. Where did you get it at (and how are you liking it?) I need to find a dictation resource for next year. Thanks! Love your blog, by the way :)

I found it for free at Google books. I really liked the program, up until I got pregnant and had a surgery with complications. I no longer have the time to prepare it for each week. I was writing out the spelling rules that went with the dictations and creating a list to use for a Friday test. I would still recommend it, life just got in the way of using it for us :).
