[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boring unnecessary busy work like what — math facts?Spelling lists? [/quote] Spelling is best learned through reading and looking up the words while you are reading.[/quote] Vocabulary may be best learned/introduced/expanded through reading (and using a dictionary), but spelling and word usage are reinforced/refined through writing. And it’s not as if these are either-or propositions. A pg kid can write 10-20 sentences and still find time to read. And if s/he can’t there’s probably an LD in the mix that needs to be diagnosed and addressed. [/quote]
