[quote=Anonymous]I think dd sees a word once and memorizes it. We’ve accidentally discovered this on a road trip. We started with easy words. Then we were like “but can you spell castle?” Yes. Water, said, eight, knee, climb, menu, Mrs., people, beautiful, because… we have a really difficult time stumping her. I’m wondering if it’s because we use closed captioning. Is this ridiculously advanced? She can write the words or rattle off the letters, but she does the letter sounds which can be confusing. I’ve heard of early reading but not early spelling. It’s kind of a worthless skill in this day and age! Our little Prek-5th grade school doesn’t even do a spelling bee. So she’s just going to be able to ace spelling tests in kindergarten probably.
