Book 4 focuses on suffixes and common endings that are often not spelled the way they sound or pronounced the way they look. The focus is on the accent patterns in these words. Exercises include spelling practice designed as pairwork, proofreading, crossword puzzles, word finds, fill in the blank, categorizing, and sorting. Each word list also includes a review section, writing exercises, and dictations. An Accuracy Checklist, Proficiency Graph, reading check tests, summary of accent patterns, and scope and sequence chart are included. A Teacher’s Guide is available.
