Learn to Spell 500 Words a Day is a book in 6 volumes: A, E, I, O,
U, and Consonants. Vowels rule English and they cannot be avoided.
Hence, each vowel is dissected and isolated in a volume and The
Consonants is the 6th volume. Having 100 Spelling Rules applied in
600 Phonics-based Spelling Lessons, Children and Adults Learn to
Spell Hundreds of Words at a Time Guaranteed The Vowel I book is
for Children and Adults who can read but cannot spell the words
that they read. It can be used in schools from the 4th grade and
up, or as a self-help book without the help of a teacher. Dyslexia
in spelling and in writing letters in reverse ends, after learning
to spell and after slowing down to write words slowly. The vowel
"i" has eight sounds we call phonics, which are spelled in 19 ways
we call spelling patterns. Every sound and spelling pattern of the
vowel "i" is presented in this book, as in these examples: Short i:
Jim, gym] Long i: night, sign, child, die, dye, type, icon, by,
bypass] Minor sounds of i: bikini, onion, mission, vision, soldier]
Schwa sound of i: credible, analyst]. The Vowel I book contains 62
comprehensive and detailed phonics-based spelling lessons. Each
lesson begins with a logical spelling rule, followed by a list of
nearly all the words that follow that rule, followed by a
nonsensical story that contains most of the listed words, and then
students are asked to read aloud slowly to memorize the spelling of
hundreds of words at a time. Sample of the nonsensical stories to
memorize phonics in words: Lyle has a nice style. Lyle takes
enzymes mixed with thyme. Lyle types 90 WPM. Lyle needs to analyze
before he can memorize. Lyle and Kyle's names rhyme. Lyle and Kyle
do not stereotype people. Kyle cares for a tyke-paralyzed dog. Etc.

of words at a time. The 30 unique learning features in Sadik's
