Reading Reflection: March 30

I agree with the fact that it is enormously significant to focus on the mechanics of writing while working with especially beginning level learners. Becuse it not only helps in improving the correct spelling, but also helps in reading comprehension and writing and appropriate pronounciation.

I still have difficulty spelling even simple words. This forsure reminds me of the time when I was a beginning learner of English. When I was learning English in a private school, I was not used to writing and we were not given any writing practices either in class or out of the class except we had to take some extra grammar notes for which we need to write and memorize the rules.

There are so amny ways to spell the same sound in English. It makes spelling very difficult.
sci, ti and ci can all have the sound of sh, gracious, action, glacial.

Spelling is very difficult!
