Homeschool Curriculum Guide - Spelling, Grade 6

This is a traditional spelling program with a lesson introduction explaining a spelling concept and a pretest, followed by activities and puzzles during the week to reinforce concepts introduced, and finally, the end of the week test.

Every weekly lesson begins with a story that develops key principles found in that week's Scripture verse. The colorful lessons in this workbook are broken down into 10 components: preview, word shapes, hide and seek, other word forms, fun ways to spell, working with words, dictation, proofreading, games, and journaling. In these sections, students will explore word meanings, learn tenses, discover different forms of the root word, learn punctuation, and complete dictionary practice.

Rather than presenting the lists in word families, this ACSI series is designed to teach most frequently used words as well as spelling rules. Sound-letter relationships, visual memory, and meanings are the three strategies used in the instruction in this program. Writing/composition activities are a major part of each spelling lesson.

Grade four expands on the student's use of visual memory skills and places a stronger emphasis on the meanings and uses of words. Phonetic principles are reviewed with information on the exceptions to these principles. Spelling word lists are 20 words in length.
