This can be the one spelling guide you must use!
As a homeschooler for 15 youngsters over three a long time, I’ve come throughout a variety of spelling applications. Most encompass grade-leveled lists (with phrases which have little or no relation to one another) and a few actions and exams. The most effective are phonics-based, however the core information of spelling is doled out in minuscule bites and unfold over a variety of years (and costly workbooks).
Fortunately, most of my youngsters turned out to be fairly good spellers just by following the Charlotte Mason concepts of copywork, narration and dictation.
However others nonetheless struggled. I knew I wanted one thing that might assist them determine primary guidelines and patterns, however I did not wish to add extra busywork to our already full days. I additionally knew there have been mothers on the market with my identical quandary, and I wished a instrument I might share.
So, I got down to create one thing that might:
Be quick and sweet–taking a 12 months or much less to put a great basis.Be extremely inexpensive.Be one thing I might pull out at any time when wanted (not grade-specific).
Thus, by God’s grace, Splendid Spelling was born!
I used to be led to construct a system of examine out of my most beloved assets:
Laurie White’s King Alfred’s EnglishEthel Bouldin’s An Acorn in My HandAnd the revised McGuffey’s Speller
King Alfred’s English helped in understanding the loopy spellings in our language by explaining the historical past of the place all of the craziness got here from. An Acorn in My Hand offers the principles in written type, and the McGuffey’s speller presents a compendium of lists organized by these guidelines to select from.
I didn’t really feel it essential to create exhaustive lists of each phrase or sample conceivable (the McGuffey’s Speller already does a stellar job of this!). As a substitute, I felt it was higher to provide a few of the most simple guidelines and patterns that might turn into a basis for the remainder of good spelling.
