Spelling

Spelling books are always discounted at Schoolhouse Publishing!

The best way to turn your child into a good speller is to encourage him to read a lot.  At the same time, give him a solid foundation in phonics.  Even though more than 25% of our English words don't follow the rules, the majority of them do.  Teach your homeschool student those phonics rules, and he'll have the tools to decode and spell correctly most of the time.  The homeschool curriculum we have in this category is the best available - and the easiest to implement and use!

An SHP Favorite!, Consumable, 200, 9780975854372

An Apple a day will help keep your spelling woes at bay! Apples is different than any other spelling program out there, taking into consideration the unique needs of poor spellers. Once a week your student is introduced to a spelling rule (called a clue). He will study that rule for the entire week, applying it in all kinds of spelling situations: puzzles, fill-in-th-blank, complete-the-Bible-verse, etc. Some of the clues break a word down into syllables.

This workbook is designed for younger students and includes puzzles and worksheet pages to provide further spelling practice. I personally haven't felt the need to use these, but rather use the regular response book for all my children. If you want to provide additional practice for your young student, this may be your answer. See below for information on the Sequential Spelling program. Though the workbook/response book is optional, I have found them to be very helpful. As mentioned, I opt for the response book rather than the workbook.

This is a level two teacher book only. If you are doing Sequential Spelling Level 2 with a younger student, you can purchase a separate level one workbook for younger students (with puzzles and additional spelling practice) (see links below). I personally use the generic response book for all my students regardless of age. But, remember, you are the best judge for YOUR student.

This is a level six teacher book only.  The response book is optional (there is no child's workbook for this level). You can do sequential spelling on regular notebook paper; however, I have found the response book to be very helpful to organize the many "tests" and to condense work into a small booklet. I do recommend them even though they are optional.
