Join us for this one-day workshop that will transform the way you think about teaching spelling!  

Research shows that memorizing spelling words isn’t enough. Spelling involves a complex process of using multiple sources of knowledge—phonology, morphology, orthography, and etymology—and applying that knowledge flexibly to accurately spell words.  

You’ll gain practical strategies for teaching students how to study words and learn how to spark your students’ curiosity for spelling.  

Topics Include:

  • Knowledge and use of spelling patterns, morphology, orthography, and etymology  
  • Teaching students to be strategic in the ways they can solve words to spell accurately 
  • Assessment of children’s spelling skills, including error analysis and spelling surveys  
  • Ways to teach for and expand students’ spelling development
