Kid with cards

This isn’t the typical "list-on-Monday, test-on-Friday" approach! Instead, you'll find dozens of proven techniques that are guaranteed to help your student master English spelling. He will learn the sounds of the 26 letters of the alphabet, 45 common letter combinations (such as CK and IGH), and tried-and-true spelling rules.

With these tools, your student can spell the vast majority of English words. In addition, he will get solid strategies for mastering the remaining words, which we call "rule breakers."

By Level 7, your student will be spelling at the high school level.

Details about Teaching Spelling

Length of Daily Spelling Lessons

As a general rule, we recommend spending 20 minutes per day on spelling. However, you can adjust this recommendation according to your child’s level and attention span. ReadSpelling – How Much Time Should I Spend?to learn more.

You do not need to complete an entire Step in one day—some Steps may even take a week or more to cover. The speed at which a step can be completed depends on your child’s age, attention span, prior experience, and the concepts being taught.

TheAll About Spellingprogram is completely flexible and customizable, allowing you to breeze through sections that are easy for your child and spend more time on difficult concepts.

Arrangement of Spelling Words/Lists

Each spelling lesson presents a single new rule or concept. Instead of jumping from one concept to another, children learn spelling in a sequential, orderly way, with words of similar attributes always being taught together. For example, when the sound of /ar/ is taught, children learn words such asbarn,car,hard,garden,shark, andsmart. For additional reinforcement, thedictation phrases and sentencesinclude words containing the sound of /ar/.

Spelling Word Review

Continual individualized review is a major component of theAll About Spellingprogram. One of the first things you'll do before beginning to teach is set up the Spelling Review Box.AASuses several different methods to review concepts and spelling words, includingflashcards, word analysis,sentence dictation, and writing activities.

Continual review is worked right into the lesson plans to give your child the practice he needs in exactly the areas he needs it, ensuring that he doesn’t forget what you teach him. Take a look at asample lessonto see how review is handled.

Teaching Spelling Rules

拼写规则教p在几个方面rogram. First the rule is demonstrated with信瓷砖to make the concepts crystal clear in your child’s mind. Then the rule is reviewed as many times as necessary until your child masters the concept. And finally, spelling rules and generalizations are also reviewed withflashcards.
