[quote=Anonymous]I find word study to be a way more useful way to teach spelling (as opposed to outright memorization). My DS's 2nd grade teacher did an excellent job with it...we will see what 3rd grade holds. Grouping words with similar characteristics really makes sense to me (and my son) and does teach more about phonics and how letter combinations work. I was terrible at spelling as a child because I just can't memorize - I need a reason to remember or some piece of knowledge to link the new word to....which word study seems to provide. [/quote]
