Think While You Spell: A Cognitive Motivational Approach to Spelling Instruction.
Fulk, Barbara M.
TEACHING Exceptional Children, v29 n4 p70-71 Mar-Apr 1997
Describes 11 spelling strategies for students with mild disabilities that enhance student motivation and can be used to reinforce existing spelling curriculums with no additional materials. Some of the modifications include stressing the relevance of spelling; implementing test-teach and test-correction methods; using an analogy strategy; and encouraging effective study, goal setting, peer tutoring, and positive attributions.
