EL> Isn't a dictionary the best spelling book?
But you'd have to know it was "phoneme" and not "foneme" to find it
in the phirst place :) But to answer your question, no, _spelling_
books are the best spelling books. I can still remember the red
spelling book I learned from in grades 1 and 2, 20 new words memor-
ized each week. The teacher would dictate the list every Friday and
then mark them. Worked for me, and to varying degrees most others
in the class. Those raised on phonics who still can't spell today
likely wouldn't have done better with any other method.
