Written by an expert in the field of dyslexia, this is the first accessible guide to the interaction between spelling and dyslexia. Kelli Sandman-Hurley guides teachers or parents through the spelling challenges faced by children with dyslexia, as well as what we can learn from the spelling mistakes in their writing samples. Introducing basic terminology around morphemes (the smallest unit of meaning in words) and phonemes (the smallest contrasting units in language) in an understandable and clear way, Sandman-Hurley explains how we can identify children's spelling errors and use them to inform our teaching. Shedding light on a necessary tool for learning in the classroom or home, "Dyslexia and Spelling" is essential reading for teachers and parents.
