In conjunction with last's week's fun "Invented Spelling" blog, I found this interesting article from The Atlantic.
How Spelling Keeps Kids from Learning
Enjoy! Last's week Invented Spelling blog is featured below:
Der Parints,
As ur child brings hom riting, do nut be serprizd at the speling. The inglish langwij is confuzing for studints. Prematur insistints that studints use standar or "correct" speling inhibits thair dezir and ability to rit. We will uz "kid speling" or "fnetic speling" in r wrk. It is a grat asesment to se wit yur child nos.
Az parints u can hlp ur child bi prazing awl thair riting. Let ur child red thair riting to u. Displa thair riting arownd ur hom. No that as ur child becomz familyr with riting, he or she wil mak the tranzishun to standar speling.
Sincrle,
Mz Mishel
