There is a new spelling curriculum at the school my children attend that empasizes words that are typically misused. Such as there, their, and they're; your and you're; its and it's; etc, etc, etc. It was only adopted last year, but my 3rd grade son now almost always uses them correctly. It it less a weekly spelling list as it is a writing curriculum that expands the common always-spell-correctly words as their writing becomes more complex. I rather like it.
