Spelling Problems

Arguably the best way of becoming a good speller is to read a lot!  In general, those individuals who read widely are usually good spellers.

Some of the most important spelling articles and resources include:

• Scots pupils struggling to master basic skills in 3 Rs
• More pupils to get Three Rs help
• Pupils 'struggling' with spelling
• Playing politics with the 3Rs
  
• EasyReadSystem 'Find out why bright children so often struggle to read and spell'
  KidsSpell - free spelling games and spelling lists.
