The units are generally self-contained, so that a student can find the spelling rules and helps for each review lesson within the same unit.

Each regular lesson has sixteen New Wordsand four Review Words. Each lesson is divided into three main parts.

Part A, Sounds and Letters, drills the phonetic composition of the words in the spelling list. Spelling rules for the speech sounds taught in the lesson are given just before the work relating to them. In many of the lessons, students will need to interpret a number of phonetic spellings.

Part B, Using Your Words, emphasizes the vocabulary aspect of the spelling words. In most lessons, students must use spelling words to fill in the blanks in a paragraph and to write two original sentences. Part B also teaches skills such as alphabetical order and word meanings. As with the other lesson parts, the student is expected to use the Speller Dictionary, at the back of the book, as needed.

Part C, Building Words, emphasizes the use of words or word parts in forming other words. Syllable divisions, plural and compound nouns, verb forms, abbreviations, prefixes and suffixes, and contractions are some of the concepts taught. Some lessons also contain a section entitled Dictionary Practice, which teaches basic dictionary skills.

An additional part at the end of each lesson is entitled Bible Thoughts. This part is designed to link the spelling words to Bible concepts. The student is to use his Bible as needed.

Grade 5 continues to build on the two-stage approach to spelling: phonetics, as is used almost exclusively in the younger grades; and structure, the chief emphasis in the upper grades. Spelling by structure involves an understanding of the work-building patterns of the language: learning the root words of word families and then adding prefixes and suffixes. By applying a few rules that are taught, the student will soon know how to spell each word in the word family, and by this method he can increase his spelling vocabulary rapidly.
