[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of current teachers came of age during the whole language movement. For example, I remember having a spelling list about everything in a firehouse. Now those 80s and 90s kids are teaching. I’d be more bothered by grammar mistakes.[/quote] Tests are unfair or racist to those who don’t study. [/quote] I’m not sure you’re understanding. Phonics-based spelling tests might cover three letter words with a short e. When I took spelling tests during the 90s, they were thematic. So maybe I was given a test on animals, but no specific phonics skill. Brute memorization is a terrible way to learn spelling, even if I did do well on the tests.[/quote]
