  1. Spelling strategies Andrew Chetwynd & Amy Nurse

  2. Parallel • Common mistakes include double R and single L, or writing parellel. • When adding the prefix ‘para’ to any word, only use one R in ‘para’, such as; Paragraph Parachute Paramedic • The word ‘parallel’ means lines running alongside each other, like the double L in ‘parallel’ Para + llel = Parallel

  3. Possession • The word ‘possession’ is similar to the word ‘possessed’, which has links to the paranormal and ghostly goings on. Therefore, think of the two sets of double ‘s’ as ghosts. Po e ion = Possession

  4. Tomorrow • Use the following mnemonic To Only Marry Oranges Really Ruins Overall Wellness

  5. February • Say the word as you see it and break it down into the syllables; FEB ROO ARE REE = February

  6. Chocolate • The common mistake is writing chocklit/chocklet, so remember the following phrase; “I eat choco late at night” Choco + late = Chocolate

  7. Lovely • The text speak for ‘love you’ at is LY, so the really affectionate might write LLY (love love you). LLY = ‘love love you’ = Love LY = lovely

  8. Permanent • The common mistake is to spell permanent with three E’s, permenent. To remember the A in the middle, think of the hidden word in the middle of permanent; man. Per - - ent = Permanent

  9. Potential • The hidden word in the middle of potential is tent Po - - ial = Potential

  10. Saturday • The common mistake is to spell Saturday without the R, or phonetically with an E or A as the central vowel. To remember the UR of the middle, think of the hidden word in the middle of Saturday; turd. Sa - - ay = Saturday

  11. Performance • The common mistake is to misspell performance with three E’s; performence. So think instead of a common type of performance; dance. Now imagine the words ‘perform’ and ‘dance’ together and remove the D. Perform + Dance = Performance
