Beneath the Surface of Words: What English Spelling Reveals and Why It Matters
By enabling students to understand the structure of English, we help them to master the language, strengthening both spelling and reading. This free webinar is presented by Sue Scibetta Hegland
English spelling has an undeserved reputation as unreliable and riddled with frustrating quirks. In this webinar, Sue Scibetta Hegland will present an overview of the major concepts introduced in her book Beneath the Surface of Words: What English Spelling Reveals and Why It Matters. These concepts allow us to understand the systematic forces affecting the spelling of all English words, and they provide answers to many of the puzzling “whys” of spelling. Sue will answer questions at the end of the webinar.
