Not Just a Boring Spelling list

I started using the Spelling Workout books from Modern Curriculum Press a couple years ago as a secular recommendation from The Well Trained Mind. I have looked around at other spelling books and I like the structure of this series better. It is set up with a sport theme throughout. The lessons begin with a little story on a range of topics, which my son really likes, then you can give a warm up test to see what words your child will need to give more attention. Next there are a couple pages with fill in the blank exercises for practice (I find this much better for remembering the spelling words than just writing them over and over, which can become a mindless exercise). On the last page of the lesson there is a writing exercise, proofreading and extra practice. I really like that they have a proofreading section. You test the words at the end of the lesson and send the mistakes to the "word locker", where you review them later. Overall this is a great comprehensive spelling curriculum that teaches concepts along with memorization in an interesting format. My son has been an avid reader but his spelling was not great. He has progressed a lot and is doing very well now with this series.

Solid spelling program and user-friendly

Excellent series and very user-friendly. Clearly states the spelling rule each week and has sufficient exercises to enable student to master spelling and meaning/usage of words. Proofreading skills/symbols are taught weekly, a writing assignment using the spelling words is included; Latin/Greek roots are taught in upper levels (good with classical education). Dictionary skills taught as well. Well rounded spelling program in an interesting package for students.
