Opis

Spelling is a human literacy ability that reflects language and nonlanguage cognitive processes. This collection of papers presents a sample of contemporary research across different languages that addresses this ability. To understand spelling as an interesting scientific problem, there are several important perspectives. First, spelling is the use of conventionalized writing systems that encode languages. A second asks how children learn to spell.

Recenzje

"Well presented and accessible, this interesting collection of papers is divided into three distinct yet complementary sections which combine theoretical perspectives with practical issues concerning how children learn to spell in classrooms."
