Letter Tile Magnets
Description
Letter tiles play an important role in the All About Reading and All About Spelling lessons. Attach these magnets to the back of the color-coded letter tiles to enhance letter tile storage and use.
Magnetic tiles are easy to prepare and use.
- The ½" magnets have been specially designed for our letter tiles. They are die cut almost all of the way through the sheet, making it easy to separate them. Simply peel the backing off to expose the adhesive and attach to the back of the letter tile.
- You can work with the tiles right on a magnet board or remove just the tiles you need for the lesson and arrange them on the table.
Magnetic letter tiles save you time and keep you organized.
- With the magnets, you no longer have to alphabetize the letter tiles at the beginning of each lesson.
- The magnets make it easy to store the letter tiles. Simply leave the magnetic letter tiles on a magnet board or magnetic dry-erase board and they'll be organized and ready for your next lesson.
- The magnets are just the right strength, too—strong enough to hold tight to the magnet board, but not so strong that you have to pick them up to move them. They slide easily around the board so you can demonstrate the lesson concepts smoothly.
- Each set contains enough magnets to add to the back of the letter tiles, the letter tile labels, and syllable tags. There are also enough to add to the suffix tiles and prefix tiles (added in upper levels of the program).
All About Spelling is a multisensory, mastery-based spelling program designed specifically for homeschoolers and tutors. Using the Orton-Gillingham approach, it teaches spelling through phonograms, the sounds letters and letter combinations make, rather than rote memorization of word lists. The program is gentle, logical, and highly effective, especially for students who struggle with traditional spelling methods.
The lessons are lightly scripted and easy to teach, taking the guesswork out of instruction. Each level contains around 25-30 steps, with built-in review and reinforcement so students truly master concepts before moving on.

Important Notes: The Letter Tiles and the Review Box are required but are one-time purchases used throughout the entire program. Levels are based on skill rather than grade level. The program focuses exclusively on spelling and does not include vocabulary instruction. Students should be able to read basic CVC words and simple blends before starting Level 1.
All About Spelling is an excellent choice for families who want a thorough, logical, and multisensory spelling program that builds deep understanding and long-term spelling success.
