Numbers like 5, 6 or 9 can be reversed… She has no problem copying a sentence though…
I tried her on re-ordering of words to form a sentence, she could do simple ones like 5 or 6 words. -

i'm not sure if this will work, but instead of sitting down and spell the word with her during spelling revision time, you can try letting your girl spell the words first before letting her see the words - ie she has to use her phonics skills to decipher the word first. then use a different colour marker and get her to mark her own mistakes - ie hoping that the next time she tries to spell the same word, she can link back the action of correcting and remember which letter she got wrong. see if it helps.

Hi Tamarind,
Her kindergarten teacher said my gal has no problem with her phonics, which is why, i find it strange when i use phonic to guide her for the spelling - she cant do the sound. :!:
I went to your blog and started trying out your method... 50% working 50% it is not... i'm not too sure why... :?:
If phonics is properly taught in the kindergarten, then your girl should not have any problem with spelling at all.
When my girl attended the Montessori phonics enrichment class, during every lesson, the teacher taught the kids how to listen to the sounds of a word, and pick the correct letters. Kids who has a good foundation in phonics naturally knows how to spell out the words easily.
If you are practicing using my methods :

Remember to break up the sounds, like \"c-an\", and ask her to listen to the sound and pick up the correct card. -
Yes, she's been taught well... the teacher said may be her brain has yet to 'switch' on ! :lol:
:love: i used your methodology to guide her at the moment
