This is the 9th book in the Successful Spelling series designed to improve both the students' spelling and vocabulary. It follows on from Successful Spelling 7. If you are unsure of the student's placement in the series, try Test Your Spelling 5 & 6 or Test Your Spelling 7 & 8 to determine which book they should start with.
Most spelling units have been grouped into common sounds, prefixes or suffixes to make learning the words easier. Each unit is for one week.
