How to Teach Spelling is a comprehensive resource manual that provides a structured and graded method for planning spelling lessons. It is compatible with all four workbooks in the How to Spell Series. Each of the lessons builds on the previous lessons; phrases and sentences for dictation include words that test the rules that have already been learned. Sight words are also assigned in order of difficulty and then incorporated into the phrases and sentences for dictation. It contains a detailed table of contents, with grade level recommendations and an index. Material to be written on the chalkboard for students to copy, and words, phrases, and sentences for dictation are clearly indicated by large type. It is spiral bound and provides many features a busy teacher will appreciate.

After being unable to find any reviews of the program anywhere I thought I'd better write one. I think this is one of the simplest spelling programs out there- if you use it along with the workbooks. We have done workbook one and are beginning workbook two. I use the workbooks mainly as a guide because they tell you when to do dictation and where to find it in the HOw to Spell book. I think we will end up using this all the way through because it is so easy, although we simply use it as a guide. We include review before we start every lesson, which is not in the book, I do not think there is any test or quizes, or reviews throughout the program, however the dictation is constantly reviewing previously learned material. Overall I think this is a very thorough program, the HOw to Spell book also a good reference for any spelling program.
