Pupils with spelling problems often experience difficulty with the whole curriculum and lose confidence with writing. The ACE Spelling Dictionary by David Moseley breaks through these problems. Using the unique index, pupils need only think how a word sounds to find out how to spell it. By simply identifying the first vowel sound, the speller is instantly sent to the page where the problem word is found. The easy-to-use reference system will tempt them to use more interesting words in their writing, enabling them to produce work that they can be proud of. Both patterns and irregularities are highlighted in the dictionary so that pupils learn to spell incidentally. The dictionary includes: a clear step-by-step guide to effective teaching with the dictionary, over 16,000 words, a comprehensive list of commonly misspelt words and further learning strategies for spelling. Contains 299 pages (240 x 167mm).
