Help Your Student Become a Better Speller
Your teen may no longer take weekly spelling tests. But spelling is still important.
To help her improve her spelling:
- Play word games together. Games like Scrabble® let kids experiment with different spellings and get instant feedback.
- Nurture your teen’s love of reading. Reading exposes students to correct spelling.
- Encourage your teen to write in journals, letters, etc. Writing gives students a chance to practice spelling rules.
- Make sure your teen has a dictionary within easy reach, either in book form or online.
- Don’t be overly critical. Just concentrate on improving spelling over time.
