Also important are recognition of diphthongs, silent letters, compound and abbreviated words, contractions, homophones, homographs, prefixes, suffixes, and base words. “Brain tickler” problems challenge students’ imaginations and test their learning progress. Barron’s popular Painless Series of study guides for middle school and high school students offer a lighthearted, often humorous approach to their subjects, transforming details that might once have seemed boring or difficult into a series of interesting and mentally challenging ideas. Most titles in the series feature many fun-to-solve “Brain Tickler” problems with answers at the end of each chapter. There Is More to Spelling Than Meets The Eye! | Customer Rating: | To be quite honest, I couldn't imagine spelling has a lot to do with pronunciation before. The author clearly associates each letter pattern with each vowel sound.(e.g./u; o as in woman, ou as in could, oui as in bouillon, u as in bull, oo as in wood) It sounds like a real cliche, but practice makes perfect; you'll get used to it once you get the pattern indicated in this book! The same is also true of prefixes(pre-, post-, re-, dis-, ex-, etc.) and suffixes(-ed, -tion, -er, -or, -ee, etc.). Both will help you strengthen your vocabulary-building if you know what they mean. Again, practice makes perfect!! | painless spelling tutor | Customer Rating: | | I bought this for several of my employees who have to write what customers say and who never learned the basics in school. They are enjoying learning and using this book, and their skills are improving. Well worth the small price. | Spell | Customer Rating: | | This book is a very good supplement to any grade school course. It is also an excellent aide for adults who have problems with their spelling. | painful learning | Customer Rating: | | Not what was expected at all. Not a new approach to this subject,was very boring---much remenber this and remenber that stuff--did not like this book--intend to give it to goodwill. | This books "spells" success! | Customer Rating: | | Another wonderful addition to the "Painless" series, this little handbook is a must-have for students, parents, and teachers who want to make spelling easier for themselves or others. Let's face it, spelling isn't exactly high-interest learning - but the "Painless" guide truly does make learning easy and nowhere near as boring as the typical spelling books we all endured in school. The examples are fresh and interesting, and the explanations are clear...and best of all, this guide really does make learning/teaching spelling a PAINLESS experience! |
