English Spelling Vol. 1, Second Edition

As a response to popular request, we have updated & printed English Spelling Vol. 1 in spiral-bound book format. In this second edition we have used  a new Compact Qld School Font, which was designed especially for us by Aussie Fonts and which is available for a very reasonable price from their website (www.schoolfonts.com.au). We thank all the teachers who have used the CD version and given us valuable feedback on their experiences with it. The new paper-based edition contains many photocopiable teacher resources: Alphabet chart and hand cards; Letter formation exercises; Sound charts for l and r, voiced and unvoiced consonants and for short vowels. There are also two songs:  the traditional alphabet song and a sound song of unknown origin. Finally there are almost 70 pages of photocopiable exercises to encourage students' mastery of the short vowels.  These exercises have a cover onto which all the worksheets can be stapled to keep them together and in the correct order. There are also suggested answers to all of the exercises.
