"This famous, award-winning spelling program by Beverly L.
Adams-Gordon just became better. Now featuring 21st century technology, it still
teaches solid back-to-basic spelling skills. Since 1994, Spelling Power has
given home educators the perfect way to teach comprehensive spelling skills to
their whole family."
"Your students will use this research proven program to master
the 5,000 most frequently used words. These words are divided into 11 levels
based on their usage. Each level of Spelling Power’s unique word list is then
further organized by phonetic principles and spelling rules."
"Additional words that your students needs to master are taken
from your student’s own writing errors and added to your Spelling Power program
using the provided resources. Your students continue to study each of these
words until they have spelled them correctly at least once. Then Spelling
Power’s spiral curriculum approach of repeated, spaced review assures your
students will master every word they study. And your students will master them!
Spelling Power’s six levels of built-in review guarantees that every word taught
will be mastered."
"Multi-sensory study steps, inductive learning activities,
interesting skill-building activities and games, and the incorporation of
spelling into the rest of your curriculum are integral aspects of Adams-Gordon’s
Spelling Power program. Everything you need to teach each of your students
spelling skills to the college level is contained in this one easy-to-use,
step-by-step curriculum package. You’ll even find everything you need to know to
teach them proofreading and dictionary skills."
"Spelling Power now comes with a Teacher’s Resource CD-ROM,
providing a wealth of printable skill-building activities, teaching aids,
printable test forms and more. You’ll love how the CD-ROM’s Searchable Word List
allows you to add words misspelled in daily writing to your students study
words. Your students will love the new Digital Spelling Tutor -- a 21st Century
tool that makes spelling drill fun and trackable."
"Even if you are new to teaching, you’ll find that Spelling
Power’s all new, easy-to-understand Quick Start Steps and the included Quick
Start DVD Seminar will help you give each of your students Spelling Power in
just 15 minutes per day!"
"As with previous editions, Canadian/British spellings are
included in both the Flow-Word-Lists and the Searchable Word List to make it
easier for non-American spellers to use. These alternate spellings appear in
brackets behind the American spellings in the Flow-Word Lists (for example:
color [colour]). In the Searchable List, the words appear in the correct
alphabetical sequence, with a reference to the alternate spelling. This allows
individual teachers to decide which spelling convention to teach."
"For one low price you get the Spelling Power teacher’s manual,
the Teacher’s Resource CD-ROM, and the Quick Start DVD Seminar."

This multilevel text is the Spelling Power that you hear about
for homeschoolers. It is an economical, effective, and easy to use program
for teacher and students. It is a multi-sensory approach that focuses on
learning words you need to learn--as opposed to studying twenty new words
whether you know them or not.
