only one syllable words with short vowel sounds are introduced.
Once a home student has demonstrated a mastery of these short vowel lists of 2nd grade spelling words they are ready to move on to more complex and more challenging words.
Generally combinations of vowels, specifically words that end in “e” are now used. The same alphabetical list used with the short vowel sound collection of 2nd grade spelling words is used for the more advanced combinations.
