Veritas Press Catalog 2008/2009 - (Page 18) S E C O N D G R A D E 2 | Linguistics Excellence in Spelling: The Phonetic Zoo Andrew Pudewa Each lesson presents a rule, jingle or hint, with fifteen words which follow the rule OR break it. Flashcards with animals and animal names can be used for visual reinforcement. Every fifth lesson is a “personal spelling” test using words from the student’s own writing or vocabulary. Students study independently, using a CD (headphones are helpful) and practicing the ten-minute lesson each day by taking the auditory “test” again and again until a perfect score is achieved. Creating a high repetition of auditory input, this “classical” approach is the best way for most children to learn spelling rules and words. An outstanding product from the Institute for Excellence in Writing.
