Join Savannah for this episode of Creating Readers, where we delve into the topic of spelling.

Have you ever heard someone say that "some people are just bad spellers"?  Or maybe you've even said "I'm a terrible speller."  

We are not destined to be poor spellers.  There are concrete ways to practice spelling with children of any age.

In this episode, Savannah discusses:

  • the myth of the poor speller
  • Whether or not we should teach spelling whole group
  • Spelling tips for younger students (single-syllable words)
  • Spelling tips for older students (multi-syllabic words)
