Spelling

A Spelling Test is the most common activity students experience on CAPIT. Spelling instruction begins in KG and, for some students, as early as preschool. Students spell ten words in each Spelling Test and complete hundreds of spelling tests every year—beginning in KG.

Spelling Tests accomplish two goals:

  1. They assess students to ensure they understand all the previously learned Reading Skills.

  2. They help the students automate their decoding (reading) and encoding (spelling) skills.

ERROR AND FEEDBACK

When a student makes an error, CAPIT indicates to the student which letters the student got wrong. This immediate feedback is crucial for learning and is made possible by our digital learning platform.
