Spelling skills for a lifetime of success

"This being my first year using VoWac in our school, I have to say I am very impressed with the results...I had a second grader who was struggling to read. She is excelling in leaps and bounds...The children love the clover words and I have never heard one moan or groan when I tell them it is their turn for VoWac. Parents are very pleased with how well their children are doing in reading and spelling. Thank you for such an excellent program...If other schools are considering this program I would STRONGLY recommend it."

--J. Bergstrom, K-8 Teacher, Sidney, MT

   

VoWac Spelling program teaches children how to become spellers instead of teaching them how to spell certain words.  Once they acquire the skills to spell unfamiliar words, they become spellers for a lifetime. 

VoWac's spelling methods teach children the mechanics and construction of the written word; how and why a word is pronounced and spelled a certain way.

VoWac Spelling uses direct instruction featuring intensive teacher-student interaction with immediate feedback.  Structure of the language taught is sequential. The organization of the English language gradually unfolds before the child's eyes.  The more a child knows about the language, the better speller he becomes.

Children develop their long-term memory through multi-sensory methods.   Games and activities, using manipulative articles, aid students who learn best by doing. Included are fun activities designed to improve children's auditory and visual memories.  VoWac implements a Modified Fernald method for memorizing the spellings of non-phonetic words.
