The Seminar:
This is a two-day, sixteen hour teacher-training, providing you with the tools and knowledge to implement the SWR/Spalding method with confidence and success, whether your students are beginning, elementary, or remedial. We will teach you to use phonics to teach spelling, writing and reading, place each child at their correct level by diagnostic tests, and adapt this method to the student's abilities. There will be hands-on work time, so you can learn how to teach each student as you build your Spelling Notebook. This class includes instruction based on the new Spell to Write and Read and the Wise Guide!
This intensive phonics course completely integrates penmanship and spelling, writing, reading with grammar and compositon
in the early grades, and is a complete spelling course for grades K-college level.
This
two-day training will give you the tools needed to successfully
implement the entire course. This time-tested method is excellent for
beginning readers, for an elementary spelling program, or remedial
students behind in reading or spelling.
Handouts Provided: Each participant will receive a blank learning log (primary for the basic and black for the advanced), a regular and a red pencil, and class handouts.

Accolades about this seminar * * * Links pertinent to SWR
"Mary makes Spalding (SWR) so practical and simple! I can't imagine using any other system to teach my children."
- Colorado mother
"My
daughter was hardly reading at eleven years of age. When I started
TRH/SWR, she tested at 1.1 (first grade, first month), and within four
months, she was 4.4! Mary's seminar really helped me have the
confidence to teach her." - Homeschool mom from California
Other Endorsements of Mary Tanksley's seminars
"I
loved your website. Especially helpful was the information about "The
comparison between phoney phonics, fickle phonics, and pokey phonics
with true phonics." I sure wish I could have had that 5 years ago when
I had to defend the system I was using so successfully to our Master
Teacher who insisted it did not work since she had tried it and had
little success." - satisfied SWR user
