Publisher's Description of Spelling Scale for Home Educators
This booklet contains 8 standardized 50-word spelling tests to evaluate the spelling capabilities of students from First Grade through the first year of college. This is not a spelling program, rather it is designed to determine a student's level of spelling. It includes complete instructions as well as an evaluation table. Ages First Grade and above
Phonics for Reading and Spelling is an intensive
multisensory phonics program that uses a phonogram approach similar to The
Writing Road to Reading. This book, authored by Bonnie Dettmer, is very
simple to use, with clear directions for the teacher. Beginning with the 26
alphabet phonograms, all 72 basic phonograms (symbols for sounds) are taught.
It also incorporates handwriting and spelling, and reinforces the phonograms as
they are taught. Handwriting begins with the teaching of the letter sounds.
Spelling instruction begins after the first 52 phonograms are introduced.
Gradually, other language skills are added, such as writing complete sentences,
adding affixes to words, and making contractions. Reading is introduced after
students can construct original sentences. The program, encased in a sturdy
three-ring binder, includes a set of basic phonogram cards, a CD containing the
phonogram sounds, and the Spelling Scale for Home Educators.
