Customizing Sequential Spelling
Here you will find the word families that are tested in each
level of Sequential Spelling, including the order in
which they are presented. Levels 1 and 2 have a bit
more detailed information, including examples of the easiest
and hardest words of each word family, the number of words
presented in each word family, the number of repetitions,
and even the number of beginning 2nd graders who can spell
the easiest word (based on Harry Greene's 1954 study).
Levels 3-7 give you an abridged version of this table, with
just the word families tested.
We have also given you all of the evaluation tests of all of
the levels (teacher's editions) so that you can get a better
idea of what each level contains.
Although we recommend, generally, that everyone starts at
level 1 (see Where to Start
with AVKO Materials),
you may find that this is too easy for your child,
especially if he is above average in spelling. You may
choose to accelerate the lessons, "spot-check" the word
families and test on them only if they are missed, and/or
choose to
develop your own Sequential Spelling tests. You
may also be interested in
Individualized Spelling if you would like to make
your own tests. If you would like more information on
customizing the program to meet your specific needs, please
do not hesitate to contact us.
The Sequential Spelling method is extremely adaptable
because of how it is set up and the principles on which it
was founded.
