Spelling Dictionary for Writers Book 2
Parents and teachers often counter spelling questions with the response, "Look it up!". Unlike most dictionaries, which often contain more than 50,000 entries with more than a hundred on each page, this volume is designed for maximum efficiency for middle school students. It contains 5,000 words that research shows middle-schoolers use in over 95% of their writing. The alphabetized words include different forms the word can take and short definitions of words that sound the same but are spelled differently. A thesaurus is also included in the library. These pages offer multiple alternatives for overused words and expressions in the average middle-schooler's writing. Word banks for country and state names as well as thematic lists to help students write about major subjects like sports, school, and holidays will provide students with a chance to take responsibility for their own writing and will make it easier for the teacher to promote good writing.
A Spelling Dictionary for Writers is a comprehensive but accessible reference tool for improving students’ compositions and encouraging self-sufficient and resourceful writers. This book lists over 5,000 frequently used words and accounts for 95% of many middle-school level vocabularies.
