The Most Effective Way To Teach Spelling, Mandy Lea Strange

Theses Digitization Project

The research in this project shows that spelling needs to be taught through patterns, rhymes and the use of analogies.

Additionally, spelling needs to be taught within writing, not as a completely separate subject.
