Spelt (Triticum spelta) is a hexaploid species of wheat. Spelt was an important staple in parts of Europe from the Bronze Age to medieval times; it now survives as a relict crop in Central Europe and northern Spain and has found a new market as a health food. Spelt is sometimes considered a subspecies of the closely related species common wheat (T. aestivum), in which case its botanical name is considered to be Triticum aestivum subsp. spelta.

Mike:

I have a seven year old who is learning to spell, it is not fun at times. I have a four year old who swears in Spanish, picked it up from the boys in her preschool.

At the moment the seven year old is reading the Glass evelator. AR soon.
