The Guided Spelling program is a yearlong curriculum for grades 1--6 that is based on recognized research in spelling and expands on the popular Guided Spelling and Segmentation routine in the SIPPS program. During a Guided Spelling session, the teacher guides students before and as they spell words, which helps develop proficient, metacognizant spellers who are deliberate in anticipating the pitfalls of the English language and who know which spelling approaches to use when writing.
