What Teachers Need to Know About Spelling bridges the gap between knowledge accumulated from research on spelling acquisition and the practicalities of teaching spelling more effectively in schools. Current trends are examined, alongside community views on spelling standards because this is the context in which change is beginning to occur. Spelling contains practical suggestions on methods and activities applicable to all students, supplemented by specific advice on assessment, and links to additional resources.
