Spelling it Right advice 4 Adult literacy Everyone can improve their spelling with help and advice from Spelling it Right Click here for: Exercise List HomePage Some advice for adults who are weak spellers If you have read advice pages 1, 2 and 3 you will see that they are addressed mainly to parents who are worried about their children's spelling. When we created our web site, in April 2000, these were the people we had in mind. However, since that time, it's become apparent that there are many adults out there who have decided to try to improve their own spelling and we've had lots of e-mails saying how the site is helping them. Many tell us that they can cope with reading at work but they try to avoid writing because they are embarrassed about their spelling. Here are some typical comments: "I can plod along reasonably, with the help of my electronic dictionary, until someone looks over my shoulder (or I think someone is looking over my shoulder!) And then I go to pieces." "I learned to read OK at school but spelling never seemed to click with me. The teachers always put loads of red ink on my work and I think I gradually lost confidence." "My kids tease me because they can spell much better than I can."

A few hashmarks of the minute hand past 5 a.m., Chris Mueller has the city's streets to himself. He stops at many of the same businesses each morning, delivering bagels and cream cheese he made himself. After seven years, it's almost automatic. But he still watches for the glowing landmarks of signs and streetlights that dot key intersections. At age 38, he's proud to say he's never been fired from any job. He wears another badge, too, this one not of pride, exactly, but of necessity, and a belief that people will accept his weaknesses along with his strengths. "I've always told the boss right away. I wanted to be upfront about it," he says. "I can't read well, but I can do the job."

Rather, as children grow and experience the world, new neural connections are made. This orderly and individualized process, varying from child to child, makes reading possible. Given the course of brain development, it is not surprising that young children who are exposed to certain experiences usually prove to be good readers later. Just as a child develops language skills long before being able to speak, the child also develops literacy skills long before being able to read (National Research Council, 1998). How Parents Help Sesame Street Reach Out and Read At each check-up, the child is sent home with age-appropriate books, and parents are encouraged to develop the habit of reading with their children.

The Reading Environment: How Adults Help Children Enjoy Books Keywords: Deaf Education Information/Books and Journals/Related professional resources by Aidan Chambers 96 pages/paperback ISBN: 1-57110-029-6 Concerned with the practical aspects of creating an environment that supports children as they become readers, he provides suggestions on school book fairs and displays, reading areas, author visits, and book selection. But having enabled children to become readers is only part of the issue, and he also addresses ways of keeping track of children's reading and helping them develop responses to what they read. Concise and elegantly written, The Reading Environment will be a valuable book for preservice and inservice teachers, and its distinctive blend of reflective and active comment make it an enlightening reminder to parents, media specialists, and librarians.

James , Russell Friedman Released: 04 June, 2002 ISBN: 0060084294 Paperback Sales Rank: List price: Our price: You save: Book > When Children Grieve : For Adults to Help Children Deal with Death, Divorce, Pet Loss, Moving, and Other Losses > Customer Reviews: Average Customer Rating: When Children Grieve : For Adults to Help Children Deal with Death, Divorce, Pet Loss, Moving, and Other Losses > Customer Review #1: A Must Read for All Parents This book should be required for all parents. If you want to understand the basics of human and/or child behavior, this book is a must read. The book succinctly and lovingly explains the concept of "loss" and the emotional and physical responses to it-what we would normally call grief. The beauty of this book is that grief is placed in a larger context. In other words, according to the authors, grief is the response when experiencing a "massive change or end from everything familiar." Therefore, children, and adults, can grieve a variety of situations: loss of a pet, moving to another neighborhood, or changing schools.
