(From Rigg's Institute website) "The method of instruction explained...begins by teaching manuscript letter formation through dictated (no copying or tracing) instructions, together with a sufficient set of phoneme/grapheme relationships to accommodate the Webster-Oxford collaboration that standardized English spelling in the early 1860's. These spellings are virtually unchanged 140 years later. These sound/letter relationships (the alphabetic principle) are taught together as "explicit" phonics, without key words, pictures or letter names as recommended in the federal synthesis of reading research done by the nation's leading reading professors, 1985's Becoming a Nation of Readers (BNR). This takes only four of the first nine weeks of instruction in Grade 1, and at half that pace in Kindergarten."

Dr. Robert C. Aukerman, in his book, Approaches To Beginning Reading, describes Spalding(s Writing Road to Reading) as, "... The Spalding Method ... is ... a total language arts system, in that it ... is an approach to learning the phonetic base of the language through listening, seeing, speaking, writing, spelling, and reading.
...in a first grade class the children were reading at an almost unbelievable level of comprehension, voice inflection, knowledge of word attack."
