YouTube
The people of LogicofEnglish have bought us this great clip on the difficulties that students have when learning to spell due to the multiple sounds in the English writing system. This clip does go with a module, but we found it to be very useful even without that module.
Here is the link to the LogicofEnglish profile on youtube. Through this profile you will find an array of other clips relating to many areas of literacy. |
