Melissa, I would like to be invited to chat somewhere with anyone using WTW. I have always loved the idea and the book and now that I have our reading program "under my belt" I feel I can add this and still stay withing our OC reading program. I don't know what all the sorts are --- open, blind??? Not sure yet, I am reading the book but it's a lot right now. We do the sorts all together, so time isnt being wasted, the kids are playing with the patterns.

One of the authors is the developer of the spelling component in Houghton-Mifflin, which our county adopted a few years ago. We've been told we can use WTW rather than what's in the program. That's good, because the program's spelling is for the average kid, and with WTW you can group kids by developmental level. In my 2nd grade classroom, I have 1/2 the class doing Within Words (long-vowel spelling patterns) and 1/2 the class doing Letter-Name (short vowels, digraphs, blends). I determined the groups by giving the developmental spelling inventory in the WTW book. I've also used this extensively in K and 1.
