Building Spelling Skills Book 6

Students who study this workbook will be better prepared to spell words that have difficult sounds or difficult endings. This book also provides instruction in key suffixes and English, Latin and Greek prefixes. Later units in the course teach students how to discriminate between synonyms and how to change accents. Christian values, uplifting quotes, and reminders to pray for help or thankfulness are noteworthy elements of this spelling workbook. Phonics principles focus on vowel sounds, er, sk, k, and sh sounds. Vocabulary-building is emphasized through contextual exercises as well as a lesson dealing with word meanings. Word-bank, crossword, fill-in-the-blank, and other exercises are included, helping children gain familiarity with how words and sentences are constructed. Test sheets are included at the back of the book. Teacher-Parent help is required. This second edition features updated fonts and other minor aesthetic changes; two-tone pages don't distract from the content.
