About WordWorks Literacy Centre
These videos give a window into the classroom instruction we support. It allows students to investigate the well-ordered structure of English spelling and how it links to meaning. I describe this as "word structured inquiry". You can learn much more about how spelling works and how to teach it at www.wordworkskingston.com. The main source our our instruction is Melvyn Ramsden's Real Spelling. You will see that he stars in some of our videos. Visit www.realspelling.com. They have a great YouTube site as well!
