Most of us have words we struggle to spell. And we’ve all had our less-than-perfect spelling on display. Spelling is crucial, but our spelling lists aren't working. So what else is there? Do we need spelling tests?

Research reveals how we really learn to spell, what makes spelling stick, and how we should engage in meaningful practice.

In this 90-minute recorded educator class, discover how to grow this essential skill, letting children develop the speed and confidence they need to become fluent spellers and writers. These ideas will change the way you teach spelling and will even improve your own spelling skills along the way!

Great Value

I’ve completed and loved using Pinwheels with my 3 kids. With my middle child still struggling with spelling, this was an excellent refresher and help to keep going and to determine which skills we need to continue working on. Great value for the price and an inspiring introduction to RIL workshops. I hope to do more!
