Review Summary: Lively memory gems with a variety of musical styles
Date: 2002-06-08
Details: One of the outstanding KidzUp Productions book/audio cassette series "The Learning Beat", Spelling Songs: Language Arts Skills was specifically developed for children ages 6 and older. Young listeners will learn "tips, tricks and techniques" relevant to spelling and language arts such as changing "y" to "I" before adding "er", "est", or "es"; dropping silent "e" before adding "ing"; changing words by adding silent "e"; doubling final consonants before adding endings; and more. The songs offer lively memory gems with a variety of musical styles ranging from pop and country, to rock and rap. Also highly recommended is a companion title in "The Learning Beat" series, Grammar & Punctuation Songs... Both of these titles are ideal for homeschooling, as well as community school curriculum supplementation.
