      <![CDATA[The words in this list are in the order of their frequency of use in everyday writing.
Since <em>the</em> is the most frequently used word in the English language, its number one.
The first 25 words are used in 33% of everyday writing. 
The first 100 words appear in 50% of adult and student writing.
The first 1,000 words are used in 89% of everyday writing.

Here's the <a href="http://www.jacklewis.net/cgi-bin/mt331/mt.cgi?__mode=view&_type=entry&id=2090&blog_id=2">site</a> where I found the list.

There is a book called <a href="http://www.jacklewis.net/cgi-bin/mt331/mt.cgi?__mode=view&_type=entry&id=2090&blog_id=2">Sitton Spelling Source Book Series </a>which will organized the words so that they can be incorporated into learning and review each year through eighth grade.

Here are some examples that contain the grade, word list and internet games:

<a href="http://school.elps.k12.mi.us/donley/classrooms/berry/sitton_spelling_activities/3rdgrade_spelling/spelling_mainpage.htm">Third Grade</a>

<a href="http://school.elps.k12.mi.us/donley/classrooms/berry/sitton_spelling_activities/6thgrade_spelling/6thgrade_mainpage.htm">Sixth Grade</a>

Here is a <a href="http://www.angelfire.com/stars3/education/">Cybrary Man's Educational Websites </a>to sort through and find the <a href="">best free spelling links </a>to internet games, quizzes and PDF files.

Here's a list of <a href="http://home.earthlink.net/~dlhemry/Spelling.html">40 ways a student can study</a> their spelling words.
