Those who have a good grasp of spelling navigate school more easily and approach life with greater confidence. By the time they reach secondary school, when texts become longer and vocabulary more complex across all subjects, spelling rules become a real asset for your students. Understanding these rules helps them minimize their mistakes in the long run, so they don't have to keep practicing the same things repeatedly. In this exercise book, you will find a systematically structured program that assists your students at the beginning of secondary school in mastering spelling from the ground up. Central topics are consistently developed and practiced, from spelling rules based on short and long vowels, to working with word components, and up to capitalization. Your students will repeatedly assess how valid the rules are, thereby gaining more and more confidence. A comprehensive answer section completes the book.
