Here are Dweck’s tips from Mindset:Listen to what you say to your kids, with an
ear toward the messages you’re sending about mind-set.
Instead of praising children’s intelligence or talent, focus on the processes they used.
Example: “That homework was so long and involved. I really admire the way you concentrated and finished it.”
Example: “That picture has so many beautiful colors. Tell me about them.”
Example: “You put so much thought into that essay. It really makes me think about Shakespeare in a new way.”

Study of the various patterns for spelling found within the English language (short vowels, blends, endings, etc.)
Promotes the use of these patterns within their writing
The first few cycles will be whole group as we cover requirements of the core curriculum.

How can parents help their children with spelling?
Encourage your child to reread his/her work. Have your child identify words that do not look correct. This is the first step to better spelling. Encourage your child to apply the spelling patterns he/she knows.
Help your child review his or her word sorts.
