Spelling Workout series: A-G

Spelling Workout series

Books A through G in the Spelling Workout series target grades 1 through 8 respectively. Primary levels have a strong phonics base, while upper grades shift toward study of word origins and vocabulary.

There are a student workbook and teacher's edition for each level. Teacher's editions are most useful for sample sentences to be used in pre- and post-tests. They include reduced pictures of student pages with answers overprinted.

Students past the first few grades should be able to work through lessons on their own, so this is a good choice for parents looking for a program students can use independently.

Books are printed in only two colors, but they have appealing illustrations and layout.

Spelling Workout correlates with MCP's Plaid Phonics program, but either one can be used apart from the other.
