Effective spelling instruction is systematic, explicit, 25 minutes a day in a grade by grade curriculum with differentiation for on-, above-, and below grade level students.

Never previously heard of Rainbow Writing. Surprised at both its simplicity & lack of evidence or theoretical basis. Simultaneous Oral Spelling- plus colour- minus the memory component. Even “look-cover-write-check” (Peters etc.) had more basis than th

Assigning rainbow words for spelling? These studies point to a better way. https://t.co/hgdbcavU1Z #whenyouknowbetterdobetter https://t.co/XlDAgZKP8n
