Well, if she's interested in Spanish, you could have her learn the Spanish words for each of the spelling words and put those on the test as well! My DS7 answers his math questions with the normal answer and also the answer in Roman numerals. Of course, he has a teacher who is amused by it....
Edited to add: We apparently had a major meltdown today over a spelling test of some sort (Morrison McCall? anyone hear of it?), which he says was too easy. He ended up in the counselor's office in tears because he didn't want to be at school anymore. We have a meeting on the 30th to figure out what's going on and what to do about it.
