Bit sad Iโm not at #ETAQ18 today, but I am taking 14 students to see an Ideal Husband at the #mtc tonight and hanging with Vikings at #melbournemuseum today, so I guess that makes up for it

Spelling is a thinking process, not a rote task. #etaq18
Etymological strategies for spelling require students and teachers to be 'word curious' ~ Exley at #etaq18 [role of teacher modelling, motivation etc.?]
'Spelling is a thinking process, not a rote task' & phonological strategies are the *least effective* for getting words right. ~ Beryl Exley at #etaq18 #literacies
Letters do not have sounds. Sounds have letters. English as a language works differently to other language systems. - Exley [*threshold knowledge* for helping students with spelling] #etaq18

How can secondary English teachers create 'print rich' learning spaces? - Exley. #etaq18
Beryl Exley giving an excellent, educative keynote on the teaching of spelling. 'Language is about politics'. Indeed it is. #etaq18 #TeamEnglishOz
