How well do our pupils spell? Dr. Leonard P. Ayres of the division of education of the Russell Sage founda- tion has recently constructed e stand- ard or yardstick whereby the degree of anyone’s spelling ability may be defi- nitely determired. During the past few years there has been a decided effort toward making education more definite. We already have a scale for measuring the quality of handwriting, English composition and standards for measuring ability in arithmetic. By means of this new scale children of the different grades in any community may be tested as to their spelling ability. In selecting the 1,000 words used in constructing the scale, Dr. Ayres chose those which ere most commonly used and which should form a foundation vocabulary for pupils in the schools. ‘These words were selected from a tab- ulation of some 868,000 words written by nearly 2,500 different persons, more than two-thirds of the material con- sisting of personal and business let- ters. The words are grouped in columns on the scale. The location of the 1,000 words which appear on the scale wz determined by an investigation which the words were spelled by 70,000 children in S4¢ American c 5 During the week of Ju 1915, a test of 20 words which were selected from the 1,000 word list was given un- der the direction of the superintend- ent to all the pupils of the grades ex- cept the first grade. No drill work has been done during the year upon the Ayres list of words. The words the in 5, 7 spent; 9 10, block; 11 spring; 12, river; cut; 1 15, free; 16, lake" went; 19, came; 20, Monda¥. The words used for the gredes 6-8 were: ment; 3, volume; dent; 6, invitation; accept; c 19, Tecent; lts of the test showed that all of the grades in the town the fifth attained a standin than that required by the Ayres ard. The fifth grade lacked only two- ZHHH'E. tenths of equaling the standard. It was found, however, that there was variation in the results for the differ- ent grades and schools. The averages for the different grades of the town were as shown in the following teble: o ) g 2 £ Tt i ® .
