Spelling Development: PRECOMMUNICATIVE SPELLING - ANSWER "babbling" stage of
spelling. Children use letters for writing words but the letters are strung together
randomly. The letters in precommunicative spelling do not correspond to sounds.
Examples: OPSPS = eagle; RTAT = eighty.
SEMIPHONETIC SPELLERS know that letters represent sounds. They perceive and
represent reliable sounds with letters in a type of telegraphic writing. Spellings are
often abbreviated representing initial and / or final sound. Examples: E = eagle; a =
eighty.

all of the phonemes in a word, although spellings may be unorthodox. Examples: EGL =
eagle; ATE = eighty.
TRANSITIONAL SPELLERS - ANSWER demonstrate thinking about words visually; a
visual memory of spelling patterns has been established. Spellings show some
conventions of English orthography, including vowels in each syllable, e-marker and
vowel digraph patterns, correctly spelled inflectional endings, and common English
letter sequences. Examples: EGIL = eagle; EIGHTEE = eighty.

rimes, and phonemes.
What is the difference between phonemic awareness and phonics? - ANSWER Phonics
involves the relationship between sounds and written symbols whereas phonemic
awareness involves sounds in spoken words. Thus, phonics instruction focuses on
