By presenting all three modalities in a lesson, each student could find their own strength and I could see how my student learned best. The teachers saw the difference the lessons I had created were making in their students' spelling and writing and craved a program that would teach them how to teach spelling AND make sense to the students.

Teachers who have used Working with Words better understand the generalizations and rules that exist in spelling English words and how to teach them. What was consistent at the beginning of my teaching career and remains so today is my ener
