Yes. We made it for 2nd Grade spelling lists, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.

10 words a week for 36 weeks, a full school year.

One pattern a week: blends, digraphs, silent e and vowel teams in weeks 1 to 12, r-controlled and other vowel sounds, silent letters and plurals in weeks 13 to 24, then prefixes, suffixes, compound words, contractions and homophones in weeks 25 to 36.
