Excerpt from Common School Speller, Vol. 1
It contains the staple vocabulary of the common school text-books - words for which the pupil has constant use - and in addition, many every-day words which are frequently misspelled and mis pronounced.
The arrangement exhausts the sign-and-sound analogies of common words. Richard Grant White claims, and properly, that it is only on the basis of such analogies that the child can determine for itself the value of new word forms.
