I do agree we don't tend to glean the information we could as SLPs in the Education field from spelling errors and it could lead to increased focus and potentially increased outcomes in our interventions if we were able to do more differential diagnosis in this area.... Thanks so much.....

Dr. Bahr is an excellent presenter and she helped me understand that spelling not only requires good working memory skills, but also requires application of a child's word knowledge from reading. Therefore, as a speech/language therapist the importance of articulation skills, phonemic awareness, and vocabulary knowledge is paramount for a student to be a consistent, precise speller.

The instructor showed examples of poor spellers and those with dyslexia. The examples were very similar, and she did not explain why, despite having similar errors, one was considered to be just a poor speller and one was dyslexic. She does not understand why b/d reversals may occur. She stated to teach some spelling rules, and the rule she demonstrated (spelling "tch" and "ch") was incorrect.

As someone who has struggled with spelling all my life (some real embarrassing moments as an SLP) and parent to a struggling speller I have really sought out a lot of resources in the last year or two to help me better support my daughter. This was much more helpful than anything else I have read or seen in how to address spelling in students (not just for students with IEPs) and understanding my own weaknesses.

This course shared the benefit of understanding student's spelling errors as showing what they know, rather than showing what the students' did incorrectly. There is value in considering the reasoning behind students' spelling errors.

Very detailed information about how we should be looking at Spelling Errors - and more importantly to look at what does the student know. Also, very good information about assessing and teaching spelling within writing.

The content was very dense, and the presentation, at least to me, seemed to be too short to packed with too much to digest. I felt that the presenter assumed that we all had as much knowledge about the subject area as she. I also felt that some of the slide were too busy and difficult to follow.
by
Amber
on
July 13, 2020
Lots of information to digest. It may have been better as a 2 hour course separated into spelling error analysis and morphological/spelling language treatment. I would be interested to know more about treatment sessions and how treatment would be measured. It would be interesting to talk about how we can intergrate techniques within classrooms and work collaboratively with teachers as well. I would love to see a class on word study, spelling, vocabulary and literacy rolled into one. Overall very interesting course and am interesting in learning more.
