Fourth Grade Spelling Lists
These fourth grade spelling lists are from the Syllable Savvy Spelling Curriculum. It's the score soaring way to spell.
Why Syllable Savvy Spelling?
The syllable by syllable spelling technique is the best way way to teach spelling. And our revised Syllable Savvy Spelling has all lessons in both the traditional two column and three column formats.The two column page shows the words in the regular format and broken down by syllable. The third phonetic column allows students to self-study by folding the paper over and sounding out the word before writing it on Days 2, 3, and 4 of the spelling week.
The little chalk boards to the right of the list refer to one of the 24 spelling rules. These important rules cover almost all English words and are reviewed throughout all levels of Syllable Savvy.
And our latest edition of 4th grade includes tips and tricks just for younger spellers.
And, as always, the Instructor's Guide is included, so there are no hidden costs for you.

Teaching Tips
Helpful Hints with the Fourth Grade Spelling Lists
- Each lesson has 15 words, with space for five more words individualized to the student. These five words might include:
- Words misspelled in previous lessons
- Words misspelled in the students creative writing
- Words from science or other unit studies
- Some lessons have themes for the entire lesson. In this case, the theme is colors. In the examples above, there are themes of colors, animals and numbers. Each level has a theme for the entire year with a few words each week in that theme.
- Words are sometimes presented with prefixes or suffixes to assist students in spelling common patterns. For instance: person, personal, and personalize in lesson 25 above.
Word Themes
The theme for Level Four is the states and capitals for the USA. One or two states and their capital are listed at the beginning of each lesson. A painless way to include US geography at the same time!
