Welcome back to Preschool & Kindergarten Writing Lessons, a collaborative series from The Measured Mom and me! Today, Anna is sharing about teaching spelling with young children. Should we allow young children to make up their own spellings? If so, how will they ever learn the correct spellings of words? Hop on over to The Measured Mom today to read about about the do’s and don’ts of spelling with young children.

 

You can find more information about teaching spelling here–>

  • Invented Spelling: The GOOD, the Bad, and the Ugly
  • Invented spelling with elementary-age kids
  • Teaching Kids to Spell (I devote an entire chapter to invented spelling (the do’s and the don’ts in this ebook!)

 

Be sure to follow my Hands-On Spelling Pinterest Board,where I collect fabulous ideas from around the web related to teaching spelling!
