What’s Inside: In this episode, we chat with Dr. Carol Moxam at Newcastle University in England about her recent research article entitled, “The Link between Language and Spelling: What SLPs and Teachers Need to Know”. In the study, Dr. Moxam discusses the key aspects related to delivering explicit spelling instruction and provides teachers with clear guidance about what they need to know to deliver effective spelling instruction.
