WOW!

Ok, I just got done reading through all of my students' reviews that they turned in with what they wanted to change written on the bottom of them. I can't believe the spelling errors! It is just unbelievable! I don't even know how to help them with this! I mean this is a skill that should of been learned in 3rd or 4th grade. How do I correct stuff like this? I feel so overwhelmed! I have students that wrote amazing papers, with great sentences and vocabulary. Then I have student who talk about "resent" movie releasals and "10 bottle rocket solutes" AHHHHH! How do you help this problem! I guess I just don' t know how to teach to two different levels of abilities. I would like to talk about this in TA Strategies, because this really does concern me.
