Zutell, Jerry; Allen, Virginia
TESOL Quarterly, v22 n2 p333-40 Jun 1988
Analyzes English spelling errors of 108 Spanish-speaking second-, third- and fourth-graders in a bilingual program. The less successful students produced significantly more Spanish-influenced errors than the more successful ones. "Long E" and initial blend "s" words were most frequently missed. (Author/LMO)
