Practicing skills has never been so easy! This ready-to-use book is organized into 21 lists. As students organize the words, they practice important skills such as alphabetizing, syllabication, and using guide words! Once students have completed the activities for a spelling list, evaluate their progress by having them write the words on a separate sheet of paper as the words are recited. The dictation sentences can also be used at this time for additional evaluation!
