I need some framework for teaching phonics/spelling to my adult ed ESL students. Is there someplace that lists all the phonics rules? 

Notebooks with pages set aside for the various sounds from the IPA with spelling families listed under each is helpful. (Green: ee family, ei family, ie family, e-e family, etc.) The students really appreciated it, but it lacked a full structure. 

The closest that I've found is some tantalizing material by Camilia Sadik at the website: http://www.spellingrules.com/understand/index.htm

The listed e-mail address is no longer active. The book is not in print and unavailable on Amazon.com. 

Any suggestions?
