Case: Effective Spelling test
The principal at my school is questioning my grade level giving spelling test. Our grade level currently gives sight words as spelling test. My principals argument is, "Does this benefit all students?". What do you feel about giving a grade for spelling test?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I feel that giving a grade fr spelling test is very beneficial. When children get into a repetitive practice of learning and spelling new words, this will help when they have to read and write. This simple skill of spelling words in the long run will help the child build their vocabulary and word knowledge skills. In addition to that, become better writers at an early age. |

| Comments: I do agree that teaching students the value of knowing how to spell words is important. I think by grading the spelling test they would learn the importance of knowing how to spell. At the same time, if the test is for a very young age I think some flexibility in the grading might be beneficial. For instance a student who is dyslexic might put a "b" instead of a "d" and since the teacher knows the student struggles with spelling they could have the student do a verbal test or simply ask them to spell the words they got wrong but know how to spell. This way the teacher would know that the student understands the correct spelling even if they can't always write it the correct way. |
