That is, focus on certain letters, and teach them the sound that coordinates with them. For instance, you can say, "'T' makes a 'tuh' sound. Can you hear it in words like 'tuh-able,' 'tuh-op,' and 'tuh-rycycle?'" Give kids a good foundation by helping them spell the words they commonly use correctly. Teach your child to spell phonetically. Let them sound out words and write down the spelling as they think it sounds. Start with words that contain letters they already know the sounds for, which will help them make connections. Help them learn the correct spelling by having them re-write a word after they've spelled it out themselves. For instance, some worksheets encourage kids to write what's going on in a picture, while others give them a prompt to write their own story. Group words with similar patterns together, and have your kids learn to write them. One way to help them is to encourage them to use the words in a story. Let your child learn by what you do. As you make sentences, your child will learn to put words together, too. You can take it one step farther by having your child "play along." That is, if you're writing a note to a friend, let your child write a not to her friend. Engage your kids in their environment by asking them to describe it on paper. For example, give them an object to describe, such as a cup, and set a time limit. When the time limit is up, give them another object to describe that seems dissimilar, such as a cucumber. Let them describe it within a set limit. As the final part of the exercise, have them write about how the objects are similar, which asks them to make connections and engages them more fully. Give your child exercises that encourage him to write creatively, which makes it more fun. As an example, try putting a number of unusual words on strips of paper, though they should be words that your kid already knows, such as "tissue," "frozen," "flame," "stroke," and "fanning." Let your kid pick a couple of words from the group without looking. Have her write a poem that incorporates all the words. Encourage your child to write everyday. Let them use their imagination to make stories that go along with their pictures. As your kid continues to connect meaning with letters and words, his or her spelling will improve. One way to encourage daily writing is to have your kid start a journal. You can ask your kid to write about what happened that day, or you can use prompts to help her along. As an example, you could ask her to write about one of her toys and why she likes it or to discuss a dream she had the night before.
