Subject: Re: teaching present progressive with heart?!
Hi Leonie,
I use a diagram of a heart to teach spelling. I draw a heart, put a y in
the middle with the vowels dancing inside the heart around the y. Vowels
love y and protect the y so that whenever they are near the y the y is
strong as in plays or days. When there is any other letter next to the y ,
which is not next to anyone who loves her, goes away and is replaced as in
tries and flies but not buys.
Have a great day!
