Spelling Workout 2001 Level F Teacher Edition
This updated version is very similar in content to the older edition. The most noticeable differences are a more contemporary page layout and a reduction in sports-themed headings like “warm-ups” and “pep talks". Other differences include an extra writing activity at the end of each lesson in the student book, but the removal of references to warm-ups, final tests, and bonus words activities. All information and instruction on these activities are now found only in the teacher’s manual. While you can still “get by” using the program without the teacher’s manual, you may want the teacher’s manual to get the most out of the program. Some content has been updated as well, including several new reading/editing passages and a few new word lists. Aside from these differences most of the pages (while they may not match up exactly in page number) look very much the same. The size/length of the books have not changed. Basically, if you’re trying to decide between the editions in your own homeschool, you won’t lose out either way. However, if you are using Spelling Workout in a group/class/co-op situation, you will probably want to pick one edition and stick with it to ensure uniformity of word lists, and for ease of checking work.

We took a year off from Spelling Workout and tried a few other programs that I kept hearing recommended. We are back to it this year! My daughters love doing the lessons, and I love that it is based on phonics rules. I think it is perfect for a child who learned to read without a lot of phonics instruction. I really like that it incorporates other skills, like editing, also. My daughters have two very different learning styles, yet it works with both of them. I don't use the Teacher's Manual, and I find it very simple to use; we just open the book and do the lesson.

My son really enjoyed spelling this year due to this book. He liked the pace and the activities. We will continue on in the series. Spelling was his favorite subject and that is because of the book format.
