"I have to prepare my students for the NC Writing Test each March. When I started using these activities, my students began actually enjoying our spelling lessons and really retaining the words. They still remember words from the first week! The book is a wonderful resource for anyone who is tired of asking students to just copy spelling words. Great for any grade, too!"
-Ali Hannen, seventh-grade language arts teacher, North Carolina
"I have always wondered how to encourage spelling in an innovative way. Jane Kiester’s Teach Spelling So It Sticks! uses a variety of strategies and games that increase growth in students’ spelling, including those who suffer from dyslexia. I have seen a dramatic improvement among students after implementing this curriculum in my classroom. Students not only learn frequently misspelled words that are used in everyday life and writing, but they also beg to play the games that are provided. I am convinced that Teach Spelling So It Sticks! is a ground-breaking book that will aid in the development of learners within the classroom."
-Leslie Hind, seventh-grade language arts teacher, Alabama
