When are students given spelling tests?
Spelling Mastery includes optional spelling tests every fifth lesson in Levels A and B, and mandatory test lessons in Levels C-F. These tests are unique among spelling programs in that they are cumulative, that is, any test can include any of the words learned throughout the program. Moreover, students are not told in advance which words will appear on the tests. These tests, therefore, are genuinely valid assessments of student progress.
