    These strategies are common across grades, it is nice to see the specific application to a group of students and I hope folks who have a different concentration will look this over as well.

    I really like this! My student really struggles with spelling and so this will be great for my instruction so I can better help him!
  •  
    I also enjoyed this article! I feel like the strategies they list under principle 3 I can use with my student. I also like the games they listed under principle 6. I feel like the games are fun and also beneficial to the students because it will help them develop their spelling.
  •  
    I love this article. Spelling is so much more than memorizing and the author is right when she says that the words the student don't master on Friday are forgotten by Monday. That is why we work on blends, digraphs, onsets, and rimes. I also love the part about how spelling affects self-esteem and vocabulary as well. Awesome information!
  •  
    This article really got me thinking about spelling and how it affects a students writing confidence. I like how it is an analyzing of words approach rather than just memorization. I think the chart fort student analyzing could be useful but I might change the wording to be more kid friendly.

Word Study Instruction in the K-2 Classroom.: OneSearch! - 1 views

  •  
    This study helped students learn to spell words that they had often misspelled by putting the words that sound the same but are spelled similarly into the same wordlist. They also looked at student writing and worked together in small groups.
  •  
    Interesting approach to grouping 2nd graders. When targeting both writing and reading instruction, spelling achievement lags far behind reading achievement. Not as important in K-1 groups. Article provided insight on strategy choices I may choose for my student.

    This article is about word study and different techniques that a teacher can use with a student who need help in this particular area.
  •  
    This article gave great examples of sorting the different types of words into categories. For example, when two words that sound the same have different meanings (their and there). It also expresses different spelling patterns that the children will encounter. Words that end in "or," "er," and "ar." This article explains that studying words of more than one syllable offers opportunities to build awareness of how language is used in narrative writing.
