- development of children's writing (spelling)
- writing involves representing spoken message. they have to determine links between speaking + writing
- encoding message is learned by encoding speech
- VYGOTSKY suggested writing is learnt as 2nd order of representation (spoken is 1st). writing represents spoken.
- 2nd order because written word doesn't represent object but the spoken form of the word which in turn represents the object
- grapheme/ phoneme correspondence cause problems in English because of deep orthography
- tend to leave vowels out in spelling.
- difficulties in mastering some spelling features, like: -ar, -er, -or endigs. -ed (should the last letter be doubled or not [stopped, walked]), -ing endings.
- children do better when spelling sounds like word
- categories of spelling errors
- 1. insertion of extra letters
- 2. omitting of letter
- 3. substitution of different letters
- 4. transposition/ reversing of 2 letters
- 5. phonetic spelling
- 6. salient sounds only (twr instead of tower)
- writing involves representing spoken message. they have to determine links between speaking + writing
