Customer Reviews

Highly Recommend This Series

I highly recommend these books for any parents that do not have time to create their own spelling lists for their children. The progression of words, from easier to gradually more challenging, is well planned throughout the entire Spectrum Spelling series. Basically, each lesson consists of a spelling list with room for written practice directly next to the words. Then, on the following pages, there are a few written activities that involve the words from the spelling list. If you do not wish to use tests in your homeschool, but do not mind workbooks, then your child would very likely have a firm grasp on the spelling of the words simply by doing the activities that go with each lesson. I use these as a chance for my children to improve their penmanship, also (two birds, one stone). There are approximately 30 lessons (depending on grade level) with each containing the word list page and three pages of written activities. There is a dictionary in the back containing definitions for all the spelling words and an answer key for all of the activities (and oddly, even the spelling list). The last few pages contain room for notes and inside the back cover there is a workbook completion award.

Good for homeschooling

I am using the Spectrum books to homeschool my 1st and 4th graders. They seem to be working very well for us.

Great Workbook

My five year old daughter loves to do workbooks and this is a nice series. If your child likes these books, they will also love the Jumpstart books. Very helpful for kids in school.

Spectrum Spelling gr2

Great book but a little easy for 2nd grade if you have a child that does fairly well in school get this one for 1st gr. Great books though (Spectrum is great), colorful nicely spread on pages not cluttered easy on the eyes if you know what I mean.I have many of their books and love them all!

A must for home schooling!

I am the mother of 5. I have been home schooling for some time! McGraw-Hill's Spectrum curriculum is by far an outstanding addition to any home schooler! I like the over all content of this spelling book. It provides 36 well designed lessons which cover vowel sounds, abbreviations, plural nouns, adjectives, compound words and much more! Each lesson is covered in 4 pages. It includes a dictionary and answer key in the back of the book. Spectrum covers a wealth of information in their books! My children trul enjoy these books! I usually do not write reviews, but I had to for these wonderful books! Also, the price is very reasonable! In His service, Jennifer Culp Maplesville, Alabama MysoulisGods@msn.com
