Spelling (worksheet 1, worksheet 2, video)
How
do you learn how to spell a word?
Learning how to spell new English words is difficult at times.
Many students spell the words 'out loud'.
This is of limited value, because it doesn't provide a 'picture'
in your mind of what the word looks like.
 |
It is much better to write the word. However, simply writing the word over and over again doesn't help most people to memorise the word long term.
The L-C-R-W-C method can help you a lot with your spelling. It helps you to focus on all aspects of the word- the phonics elements, syllables and the overall 'picture' of the word.
