[quote=Anonymous]My 2nd grader final hit her stride with reading last year. She now is a voracious reader. She reads, reads, reads, reads, and reads. She loves reading! But her spelling is abominable! I just don't understand how one could be a good reader, but a poor speller? She still leans on sounding words out, but doesn't supplement that from words in her memory bank that she should know by now. For example, just yesterday, she tried to spell "bubbles" as "bubls." WHAT? What is going on here? Has this happened to anyone else's kids? Is this a learning difference? A developmental stage? A bigger problem? A sign of dyslexia? Other? Help! [/quote]
