When a child scores 2.8 on the Morrison-McCall Spelling Scale the first month and a month later scores 2.1, what is happening?
A. Perhaps some sight words were recognized the first month. The child may not be sounding out the phonograms sequentially. Be sure to have daily written phonogram reviews and reread the words for spelling (by sound or syllable). Reinforce the rules as explained above. All these activities provide practice necessary for monthly spelling gains.
