MEMORY WORDS -- THEY DO NOT FOLLOW THE
PRONUNCIATION RULES BASED ON THE ALPHABETIC PRINCIPLE*. IT IS PROBABLY
BEST TO
TEACH STUDENTS TO SIMPLY MEMORIZE THESE COMMON WORDS. These
words can’t logically be “sounded-out”. Serious,
literally-oriented students who are taught to “sound -out” every
word and who take that teaching literally will probably have some
trouble with these words.
This list is undoubtedly not complete. Let us know if you think more words should be added. |

Memory words are in the
