Spelling?


Recommended Posts

I'm going to start homeschooling my dyslexic 4th grader next week, and am hurriedly trying to pull resources together for him. Any suggestions on what to use for spelling? I use Sequential Spelling with his sisters, but I don't really think he's ready for that yet. We're doing ABeCeDarian for reading, and lots of copywork and dictation. Would you start a spelling curriculum now, or just wait until he's ready for SS?

http://www.soundfoundationsbooks.co.uk/ Apples and Pears Spelling is designed for dyslexic students. They have placement tests to figure out where to start him. VERY easy to use. It IS a little more expensive and comes from England but it is working very well here. The spelling is carrying over to my 11dd's every day work and sticking---no learning it and then loosing it the next day/week.

We are halfway through book B, and it has really helped DS, nearly 12, improve his spelling. I think the price has come down a bit because they have a distributor in the US now.
