Category Description for Megawords 3rd Edition

The third edition (copyright 2025) changes are once again minimal in terms of content. Trigger words have been removed from lists and activities throughout the practice pages. No new words have been added, and activities have not been changed. Reading Comprehension sections at the end of each lesson have been updated in language and format but the story and words used have not changed. There is an added critical thinking question to each reading comprehension section, and answers will vary.

Megawords spelling program still teaches from the Six-Step Teaching Approach that is facilitated through reading and writing and presented in fun and engaging multisensory activities. The Consumable Student Workbook is printed in black and white. The lightly scripted Teacher Edition explains the six-step approach to teaching Megawords and contains reduced student pages with answers and reproducible pages for your student or class.

If you are uncertain where to place your student in the program, the Assessment book is a one-time purchase and can be utilized and reproduced for every level, but is not necessary for the completion of this program. ~Rebecca
