Understanding Caribbean Orature

The books in the Spelling & Word-Power Series cover 3 levels of practice, arranged from Starters (which introduces the structure of words, sounds and rules), Level 1 (expands knowledge of phonics and increases the level of structuring of words and rules which guide them), Level 2 and Level 3 (provides more challenges in exercises and rules that provides a structure within which the child is equipped with more advanced tools to learn, understand and spell at more advanced levels).  Each level introduces spelling concepts, with explanation to help establish the rules which guide the approach to spelling techniques at each grade.  Rules are identified and practice is given in exercises that test understanding.  Practice exercises for you to complete, test your understanding of the rules applied.    

Teachers will find this book useful as the exercises here can either be used in group work or for individual learners to use at their own pace in the classroom and for extended work at home.  This book therefore has a dual purpose – it not only teaches and expands but tests students’ overall mastery of their spelling as they develop.  A list of advanced spelling words is listed alphabetically, with an answer key for the gap-filling exercises are at the back of this book.  Also included is your reward, a Certificate of Achievement, which marks your successful completion of this book.
