8 GOLDEN RULES TO MASTER SPELLINGS

How To Master Spelling #1

Images Before Rules

There is a long list of spelling rules. The most famous of these, of course, was the
infamous 'I before E, except after C' rule, but there were squillions of others. Let me tell
you two major drawbacks to this approach to spelling...

Firstly, the English language has exceptions - not just a handful, but a bucketful of them
- to just about every spelling rule you'll ever be confronted with. Because our language is
such a collage of other languages, it is impossible to describe it using a bunch of simple
rules. In fact, it is for this reason that Spelling Bees have come to play such a big part of
English-speaking culture. Did you know that in more predictable languages, like German,
they don't even have spelling bees. Why? It would be too easy.

Secondly, and this is the most important of all, our brains don't master spelling through
rules. Suppose I showed you a misspelled word (which I won't - as per the next tip!),
and then you correctly tell me that it is misspelled. What would you say if I asked you to
explain how you knew it was misspelled? In virtually all cases, the answer is simply this
'It just doesn't look right'!

The secret to correct spelling - well, there are several, but this is a biggie - lies in
exposing your brain to the image of a word over and over again. Moreover, the image
needs to be quite large (larger than the words of a typical printed book or Web page)
and free from other distractions.

How To Master Spelling #2

Avoid Looking at Misspellings

This one follows logically from the previous tip, but I thought I'd highlight it because it's
a mistake you'll see made in classrooms frequently.

SPELL BEE Page 3

 CLASS 2 | SPELL BEE

People sometimes think they are helping you learn to master a tricky spelling by showing
ways in which it is often misspelled. Bad mistake! Just as repeated exposure to word-
images is responsible for most of our ability to spell words correctly, it can also be
responsible for our tendency to spell words incorrectly - if, that is, we keep staring at
commonly misspelled versions of words. The solution is simple.

Don't do it - make sure that all of your spelling lists are full of correctly spelled words
only.

How To Master Spelling #3

See It, Hear it, Say It

Involving several senses in the learning process can really speed up word-acquisition.
Each time you see the new word, don't just look at it (although that is very important
too!), find out how it is pronounced and say it aloud. If possible, get somebody else to
help out by saying the word too.

Not only do the different sensations (seeing, hearing, saying) work together to help
ingrain a new word, but if you're rehearsing for a spelling bee your study pattern needs
to simulate the competition itself. If you were to study by just staring at word lists, you
would be completely thrown when faced with a word verbally - even if you know it cold!

How To Master Spelling #4

Target Your Specific Weaknesses

Word study has to be personalized if it is to be efficient. When you receive a spelling list
from a teacher, or download one from a website, it will typically contain a large number
of words you already know. In fact, research conducted in American schools has shown
that typical spelling lists handed out to students contain as few as 25% unfamiliar words!

Although you need to revisit familiar words occasionally (more on that later), you will
improve spelling far more rapidly if you filter out all the familiar words. Not just by
crossing the familiar words out - which still leaves distractions all over the page - but by
constantly recreating new lists filled only with the words you are not confident with.

How To Master Spelling #5

FIRST Test, THEN Study

SPELL BEE Page 4

 CLASS 2 | SPELL BEE

But how do you tailor a spelling program to what you don't know, if you don't know what
you don't know? A good question indeed, and I'm very glad you asked ;-)

Traditional teaching requires us to study a set amount of material for weeks on end, and
then tests us at the end to see how well we mastered it. There are several weaknesses
in this approach. For one thing, and this recaps on a point I made earlier, you may then
be devoting far too much precious time on things you already know. For another, you
can take a very long time to find out that your study has been ineffective. The solution?

Test yourself first, and then develop a study program around the weaknesses you found
in your test. This also means that you don't have to make guesses at what you think you
already know.

How To Master Spelling #6

Form Relevant Associations

Disorganized lists of words and facts are very difficult to remember. There is a well-
known strategy for achieving almost miraculous feats of memory when it comes to
recalling long random-looking lists, and that is to make extensive use of images and
stories.

The idea then is to group words together into meaningful lists, where each list has a
clear theme. You can then use pictures, stories, and other clever memory devices to glue
the words in each list together.

The suffix -OUS, for example, usually sounds just like the suffix -OSE, making it difficult
to remember which words end in which suffix. Rather than disperse these words
indiscriminately through your spelling lists, it is far more effective to group all the -OUS
words together in one list and all the -OSE together in another list.

When you are testing yourself, these words will be thrown at you randomly, of course
(just as they are in real life!). But when you go to retrieve a word from your brain, it will
be connected to its neighbors through a mnemonic, a story, or one of your own
ingenious inventions ;-)

How To Master Spelling #7

Time Repetitions Carefully

SPELL BEE Page 5

 CLASS 2 | SPELL BEE

There are far too many words in any dictionary to rehearse every word every day. It
would take most of us a whole year to get through it once. Not to mention the fact that
most of us would die of boredom well before we got to the end!

But words have to be repeated many times (experts say 6 or 7 is typical) before they
become a part of our working vocabulary. So how can we possibly master a long list of
words in a reasonably short period of time? The answer lies in carefully timing your
repetitions.

Once you have successfully spelled a word on three or four occasions, remove it from
the frequently-tested list. You know it. Move on. Other words need to be rehearsed more
frequently (daily or weekly, depending on your success rate).

Don't test yourself on a given word too frequently though. It is possible to recall words
from your short term memory (e.g. if you just tested yourself a half an hour ago) but
then fail to recall the word a week later. Leave at least a day between repetitions of any
given word.

How To Master Spelling #8

Stay Motivated

Well duh! Of course being motivated is important, but why bother adding it as a tip?
Because many people might think that being motivated requires you to enroll in a
'positive-thinking' program. Not at all. I'm not really talking about that kind of motivation.
I mean keeping the brain alert throughout your study sessions, and ensuring that you're
always enticed to keep going.

Here are a few tips :

Work with others — Many people find group work more stimulating than solo study
sessions. In addition to the obvious reasons that groups can break the monotony, there
are a couple of not so obvious ones here. Firstly, by divvying up spelling tasks (finding all
words having a certain tricky-to-spell quality, for example), you can pool your resources.
Secondly, the only way to test yourself on spelling a word from its pronunciation is if you
get another person to pronounce it! When you work in groups you can take turns of
testing each other, and the sessions are not only more useful, but far more entertaining.

Regular feedback — Test yourself frequently and in small batches. Getting feedback
after six months of hard slog is no fun at all. Getting a score out of 20 on a daily basis,
every single time you sit down to study is far more rewarding and motivating. This

SPELL BEE Page 6

 CLASS 2 | SPELL BEE

'immediate gratification' plays a big part in the appeal of computer programming to

many students. When you write a computer program and execute it, the computer tells
you immediately whether you've made a mistake or not. Instant feedback works
wonders for most people.
