(More customer reviews)I chose this book for my 5th grade Spelling. It is fantastic. It offers 35 lessons of about 4 pages each, perfect to cover in one week with a test on Friday. My 5th grader is a natural speller, but the words are challenging and there are even bonus words in each lesson. This can be used for vocabulary as well. There is a nice glossary in the back with all the definitions of the spelling words. The full color pages are interesting and exciting. There is one lesson near the end on National Parks. I look forward to some extra research and projects when we work on that lesson, maybe even a couple of field trips! This is a great book to use if you homeschool.
