Spelling Works

This is clearly a knock off. The pages are copied and not all super clear, which makes making reproducibles almost impossible.

Bought this for my 10 year old who was a poor speller. We have only started using it but there is already a noticeable improvement . The lessons are concise, easy to explain, and easy for him to do but effective. That's what counts. I would recommend this to help a struggling speller.

Love love love this spelling book for my 7th graders. Spelling is broken down into easy-to-follow strategies. Highly recommend.

This is just very bad copy of the original book. This is a fake - do not buy.

I just received this book so can't actually review it yet, but I want to correct what another reviewer said. This book is NOT reproducible. You will need a book for each child. Even if it were reproducible, you'd have to spend so much time copying, it wouldn't be worth it. Better to just buy the book, support the author, and enjoy!

This book is a great way to inject more fun and interest into the often mundane task of spelling. Most of us learn spelling by memorizing endless lists of words. Jim Halverson's approach is different. He attempts to demystify spelling and condense it to a series of logical rules. Some are familiar to us, like "i before e except after c" and some are more obscure. Once you learn Halverson's rules, you should be able to spell with greater confidence and accuracy. Spelling Works is comprised of 12 lessons. Each lesson has an overview, some introductory material that can be used to design a lesson plan, clever worksheet exercises to practice the underlying concept and a review maze. You can tell that this was written by an experienced teacher and author who clearly has a passion for spelling and the English language.*A review copy was furnished by the publisher.
