Can I spell accurately? • Think about how it looks. Does it look right? • Sound out the word. Eg. Feb-ru-ar-y Bus-i-ness • Is there a rule: • Mnemonics (Rhythm Helps Your Two Hips Move) • Phrases (there is ‘a rat’ in separate) • Analogy (‘ice’ is a noun, so is ‘practice’; ‘ise’ is not a noun, neither is ‘practise’ – it’s a verb) • Look it up in a dictionary/spellchecker. • Ask a friend or teacher. • To learn it: look, cover, write, check.
