Spelling with Young Children: The Do’s and Don’ts

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.
