Excerpt from How to Learn to Spell
In speaking the English language, one uses more than forty sounds. Our alphabet has but twenty-six letters. Certain letters represent more than one sound. This causes difficulties in spelling and pronunciation. Five letters, a, e, i, o, u, are called vowels — voice letters. The word vowel may mean a sound; again, it may mean a character representing a sound. The names, long, short, broad, ?at, etc., as applied to sounds, being technical, are apt to mislead. In speaking a word, a long sound may be quite as short as a short sound. The sound known as short 0 is difficult in two ways; difficult to know, difficult to utter when known.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a radical approach to teaching spelling and has successfully improved spelling vocabulary threefold in many classrooms. The author, who noticed that the English language and its current teaching methods don't align, began to explore better ways to foster spelling proficiency in the classroom. By studying the origins of the English language and the natural progression of a child learning to speak, the author presents a unique blend of approaches that ultimately break down the learning of spelling into simple and manageable steps. The author's emphasis on identifying standard sounds of letters, recognizing the role of visual cues, and re-emphasizing the connection between sound and symbol empowers learners to retain spellings more effectively.
