Hi Michelle, We are using Rebecca Sitton. A committee of teachers in our district spent a year investigating spelling programs and found this one to be the most authentic for learning words that are most often used in our writing (they call them priority words) and then you can customize the list based on content or frequently misspelled words from your writing workshop, etc.

I have been a member for years and read it regularly. I am in charge of putting together a spelling curriculum for a lower school that includes 3rd-6th grade. Do you have advice of spelling programs, books or activities (and listst) that you have found beneficial to help keds get inside the words rather than just memorizing them for the test? I am interested in a SOUND approach that is grade level appropriate for 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th. Thanks for any advice or help.
