SW Wisconsin | You write what you read. I'm convinced the best way to teach spelling and grammar is to encourage reading. Growing up we had probably 2-3,000 different books in the house, and with no TV and little or no internet access one popular pastime if you didn't want to read a book was to pull out an encyclopedia and browse through it. Most of us learned to read at more or less the normal time, maybe 5 or 6, and progressed very quickly. One brother just refused to read until he was 9, and then read The Hobbit as his first book. | |
