Daily Word Ladders: Grades 4–6

We love doing word ladder books. I use them for my 9 and 11 year old! Great homeschooling tool.

Dun way to improve spelling. My son struggled with more traditional ways of learning to spell but since we have started with word ladders he has improved significantly, and he actually enjoys doing them!

I really like this Daily Word Ladders book! It’s a fun way for kids to strengthen their spelling skills and boost vocabulary. Each clue builds upon the previous word, encouraging both critical thinking and word recognition. The grade level seems appropriate, and the format keeps learning fun and interactive.

Bought it for my 4th grader. Although there are some challenges she found fun when she accomplished the worksheet and researched some questions by her way. It is a good word practice option for 4-5th grader.

My Granddaughter was struggling some in Reading and comprehension. This book has helped her tremendously. Fun to do teaches you how to make different words with same sounding words, helped my granddaughter to stride ahead in her understanding of words and reading. She loved it said it was fun to do.

Great learning tool for practice after school or whenever. Has been helpful to work on quick thinking and problem solving

I got this for my 5th grader over the summer before 6th grade. I love the word ladders. They get kids thinking about spelling, but they're also like a logical puzzle. They teach vocabulary as well. My only complaint is that some of the words are old-fashioned, and there's little chance a kid would know them (e.g., aster, till). Because of those random difficult words, I do need to be close by to help. In theory, a child should be able to do them on their own, because they are self-correcting (you can't get the next word right if your current word is wrong). But overall, I'm thrilled with them and would probably do the ladders myself for fun if given the chance!

My 10 year old starts his homeschool morning with one of these puzzles every day. He’s been largely unschooled until this year and I felt he was missing some spelling and phonics skills. In this book, he is creatively thinking about words and word parts, spelling, phonics, even practicing a little handwriting. This in combination with some other materials are greatly increasing his confidence. It’s a lot of fun too. When he gets stumped on a word, his little brother tries to guess, while I give them clues. So happy we found this gem.
