Excerpt from Practical Spelling Lessons, Vol. 2
I. The Selection of Wands and Their Grading. The list is based upon a study of the investigations of Dr. Ayres and others of the problem of teaching spelling. In the grading of the words the language development of average pupils has been the sole guide. The authors have resisted the temptation to use a large number of literary extracts for dictation for the reason that such a plan either forces the introduction of words in advance of natural vocabulary development of the pupils or over-drills words requiring little or no drill. In providing matter for dictation noth ing was allowed to change the selection of words or their grading.
