The book features a wide range of activities including crosswords, picture matching, puzzles and rhymes. All will keep learners focussed and interested, whilst providing vital practice at three levels - beginner, intermediate and advanced. The book is divided into units which concentrate on a particular 'sound' or phoneme. Each unit is then broken down into a series of lesson plans, devoted to a common spelling pattern for that 'sound'. The final unit provides material to improve learners' awareness of common spelling traps, such as suffixes or silent letters. Every lesson contains a step-by-step lesson plan, background information for the teacher, photocopiable practice activities and suggested words for testing each spelling pattern.
Teaching English Spelling is a practical resource book, packed with activities for practising common spelling patterns in English.Reviews'Surely the most comprehensive collection of classroom activities for practising common spelling patterns. The variety of task types is impressive.' EL Gazette
