What Spelling You See is

Spelling You See is a spelling program from Demme Learning. The company says it is built on research about how language develops and focuses on letter patterns.

Lessons are short and daily. Each level mixes speaking and listening, reading, spotting letter patterns, copywork and dictation. The program has no spelling tests and no word lists to memorize. There are seven levels, and a student is placed by skill, not by grade. The company offers a placement tool to help families pick a level.
