Spelling rules for decoding letters into words are provided at each step. The book's a huge resource because after each rule is explained, the book does not give mere examples, it lists every word a learner can now read. It lists any exceptions to each rule and explains these 'rebels' too. \u003cem\u003eSpelling Rules, Reasons and Rebels as you Learn to Read\u003c\/em\u003e gives teachers the detail they need to explain the spelling of twenty-six thousand words. No prior knowledge of orthography is required. Boston uses everyday language and uses rhymes and fun terms to make the 'road to reading' enjoyable. She even suggests dress-ups for events and characters met along the way, photos of which are on her website, www.spellingexplained.com The appendix elaborates on information given in the four main parts of the book for those keen to know more about various topics which affect the spelling of words. Rules for writing words are included with the rules for reading words where relevant. The rules and their reasons are so simple that you will wonder why we have never been told, e.g. why we write \u003cem\u003elove \u003c\/em\u003enot \u003cem\u003eluv \u003c\/em\u003eand why not \u003cem\u003ewoz\u003c\/em\u003e? Or why \u003cem\u003eegg \u003c\/em\u003einstead of just \u003cem\u003eeg\u003c\/em\u003e?
