Spelling Rules Rule
Due to the complexities of the English language, orthographic knowledge is integral to improving spelling ability. An important part of orthography is knowing the spelling rules. If you are a poor speller, a knowledge of the spelling rules provides scaffolding to assist in determining the most likely letter order of a particular word. In this session, a range of rules will be introduced along with strategies for teaching these rules to students. Lillian will also discuss how a knowledge of rules can be used to help students identify and self-correct spelling errors.
Dr Lillian Fawcett is a specialist literacy teacher with over 25 years of experience and university qualifications in education and psychology. She has developed a range of spelling and reading programs based on well-research literacy acquisition and memory retention principles which has enabled her to successfully help hundreds of students improve their literacy skills. Numerous teachers and schools throughout Australia are currently using Lillian’s evidence-based Cracking the ABC Code programs.
