QUESTION 1) In his free writing, are you seeing fewer spelling mistakes than you were before starting Easyread?
ANSWER –
Yes. He still makes plenty of mistakes but there has been a very big improvement. I completely understand what he is trying to write when he does get it wrong too. His mistakes seem like perfectly reasonable mistakes, as I can see why he made them and the word does at least look like it should sound (or close to it). His spelling is definitely improving in his writing.
