Very pleased-more than just spelling here!

I really like this book. Let it be said that I do not think the words are the most challenging lists for 5th graders, but do not make the same mistake I made at first. At first glance I thought the book just missed the mark, but this is not the case. The lists focus on a spelling concept (short vowels, vowel combinations for one sound, etc.). There are challenge words each week as well. The thing I like about this book is that it is comprehensive, teaching how to use (and including its own) glossary and thesaurus, providing lists of Latin roots and affixes and their meanings. Proofreading also begins to be taught in the lessons. There are enough lessons to do one a day each week; and really, you don't need the hardcover book at all. I'm really happy with the book so far and my daughter is as well.
