Look Inside the Curriculum Here

Many spelling programs overwhelm kids with a lot of spelling rules, which only pile up as the year goes on. This program, developed by veteran Logos teachers B.J. Loyd and Matt Whitling, teaches students how to hear blends, clusters, and vowel sounds and introduces 5 important rules which are reviewed throughout the books. The lists are cumulative, which allows students to review words throughout the year, and each lesson features dictation sentences that allow even more practice.

Too many spelling textbooks are reading-spelling programs that make you memorize fifty or more phoneme/grapheme relationships in isolation. Instead, Grammar of Spelling is a program that teaches the most important spelling rules based on useful spelling lists and simple, effective exercises. Its strengths are in its cumulative spelling lists and dictation sentences. When a young student learns to hear each part of a basic root word, spelling becomes a simple matter of using the building blocks of reading and phonics.

Each lesson has the students write the list four times. Students repeat the words, put the words in alphabetical order, write the words from memory, and write them in cursive.

This all-new edition of Grammar of Spelling has the following all-new features:

• brand-new formatting
• lesson instructions for the teacher, with tips on how to teach the rule or sound pattern
• 2 dictation sentences for every lesson
• 5 extra words taken from the Logos Press homeschool bundle curriculum
• point assignments for every dictation sentence and for all the tests

This package includes:

• The Grammar of Spelling: Grade 2
• The Grammar of Spelling: Grade 3
• The Grammar of Spelling: Grade 4
