The responsibility of all teachers to help children develop spelling strategies is addressed in a series of articles in this journal supplement. Following an introduction by the editor, the articles and their authors are as follows: (1) "Development in Word Knowledge" (Peggy Goldsmith); (2) "Spelling Can Be Taught" (Faye Bolton and Diane Snowball); (3) "The Teaching of Spelling in Perspective" (Heather Fehring); (4) "Teaching Children Spelling through Their Writing" (Judy Turner); (5) "Take Parents with You" (Glyn Turner); (6) "Matching Spelling Instruction to Individual Writers" (Rhonda Jenkins); and (7) "Spelling Is For Ever" (Geoff Ward). The articles stress that while students can be encouraged to use a variety of resources in confirming spelling attempts, teachers, as writers, need some personal and effective tactics so that immediate demands on spelling memory are fulfilled. (Illustrations, tables, figures, and references are included with most articles.) (AEW)
