Improve spelling skills through a series of Grade 1 reading, writing, and language arts activities. Lessons focus on the primary strategies of instruction including visual memory, phonic, word structure, and analogy. Extensive differentiation support, diagnostic tests, audio, and reteaching activities ensure all students become better spellers.
Why not cover language arts along with spelling? Perfection Learning provides colorful and appealing, user-friendly workbooks that cover spelling organized by phonics rules and coverage of general language arts topics. Weekly lessons incorporate spelling practice, language applications, and composition (handwriting practice in lower grades). Language arts coverage includes parts of speech, sentence construction, plurals, antonyms, synonyms and so much more! The upper grades feature regular segments on using the dictionary. A wide variety of grade appropriate writing assignments are covered including descriptive, letter, research, biographical, and news writing. There are review lessons every three lessons (lower grades) or six lessons (upper grades). These lessons integrate spelling with both writing and reading. Although online teacher material is available, it is very expensive and not practical outside a classroom setting. Fortunately, these workbooks are straight forward and easy to use independently. Several appendices provide valuable resources. For example, in the Grade 1 course: Word Spot is a build-as-you-go spelling dictionary. Word Book provides grade-appropriate dictionary type entries (definitions, words used in sentences, synonyms and antonyms). The Handwriting Guide shows letter strokes for uppercase and lowercase letters as well as numbers. Approximately 225 pgs, sc. ~ Janice
