CHUNKING AND CHIN DROPS

RETURN TO MAIN SPELLING STRATEGIES PAGE

CHUNKING

It's simple ! If you can't spell a word this is one way to use.

What you do is, you spell it out in bits and break the word up into smaller parts.

FOR EXAMPLE :

In - ter - net              be - cause             tech - no - lo - gy

It makes words easier to spell and to remember how to spell them. You should try it.

CHIN DROPS

To work out where to split up words, place two fingers underneath your chin and say the word that you want to spell slowly. Get a pen and a piece and every time your chin drops when you say it, it is a part of the word ( a syllable) and this will help you to spell hard words.
