Evan Moor Educational Publishers Building Spelling Skills Grade 4

I appreciate the variety of words, as it covers some similar sounding words and challenges student to know the difference, as well as identify patterns. The lessons are well thought out and lessons are presented very straightforward, so thankfully I didn’t need to hover to teach. There are parts to practice copying words, then writing from memory, then matching them with their meaning (in various ways, sometimes mix n match, crossword puzzle), and using them in a sentence. Sometimes you fill in missing letters, syllables, Latin roots, or other variations. It’s great for etymology. My son doesn’t love this because it’s still homework in his mind (purchased grade 4), but he doesn’t hate it because it’s actually pretty straightforward and quick, despite his perfectionism that can be time-consuming. I highly recommend these spelling books.

I use these for homeschool, my kids write right in the book. They are a great time-saver for teachers as all the work and activities are there, already made. We do a page a day, and on Friday is the spelling test. My child finds most words at the right level to feel successful. There are a few harder words, too, plus room to print your own challenge words. Overall, a great resource.

too many words per week (20, I think) for my daughter (8) who does not enjoy spelling. It's very well organised on 5 days a week, the concept is good.

Really great book for your kids. Easy for them to follow and online with what they are learning in school

This is amazing! As a homeschool mom I am always looking for new workbooks to keep my kids engaged. I usually have multiple of each subject that I rotate throughout our school year because every books style is different and the content is different so it keeps my kids from getting to bored with the same workbook and learning style for the whole year. I do mostly child let and hands on learning but I do some workbooks just to help with penmanship and reading skills
