Extended Program

The Extended Program is recommended for beginning students. The Extended Program includes the spelling for each word. Knowing the correct spelling is important as it relates to pronunciation. Some words in English are homonyms. These are words that are pronounced the same but have a different spelling. Other words are heteronyms; words with the same spelling but different pronunciation. The rules of English are not precise and knowing what pronunciation to use can be confusing. Spelling gives the clarification beginners need.
