Keep words on display: Make a bright, engaging and informative display in the classroom. Words that are in a child’s environment will be received as passive input, which over time will transfer to active knowledge. Ask your child to write down the words that they need to remember how to spell. The physical act of writing the words by hand helps to anchor the spelling in children’s memories and encourages them to think about the letters that represent the sounds in the word.
