You Can Spell 4

You Can Spell Books 3 and 4 (second edition) continue laying the foundations for learning to spell by taking a childs spelling competence to over 1000 of the most commonly used words in the English language. Books 3 and 4 are structured into weekly learning lists with a procedure that requires the children to spell only the words that they need to learn. The books contain activities that reinforce learning and humorous characters to guide the children along the way.

The You Can Spell series has been a popular resource in New Zealand schools since the early 1990s. It has now been revised, with new activities, new lists (including, for example, digital) and a bright new presentation but it is still based on original research, a mastery learning programme and the 3700 most frequently used words in English (the words that make up more than 95% of all writing).
