[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Spelling tests are kind of artificial. The best way to become a good speller is to read A LOT and to write. Learn some basic spelling rules (I before E, e.g, but even then, exceptions) so reading a variety of texts produces better spellers than anything else. And really, we don't like to say it, but being a good speller overall is kind of an innate skill. [/quote] This worked for me, reading a lot and having a good memory. But it doesn't work for everyone. There are ways to teach spelling, and there are lots of rules that apply to nearly all words -- look into The Writing Road to Reading and All About Spelling, for a rules-based approach to spelling and writing.
