What your child will learn: Words That Fool Spellcheck
- 'Bureaucracy': bureau (desk) + cracy (rule), so rule by desks. Chunk it: bu-reau-cra-cy.
- 'Liaison' has three vowels holding hands: i-a-i.
- 'Maneuver': memorize the odd middle, MAN-EU-VER.
- 'Cemetery' is all E's: cEmEtEry, like 'she screamed E-E-E in the cemetery!'
