Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to identify differences in spelling performances between children with language-learning disabilities and typical developing children from first grade to third grade in elementary school, compared in parallel, by spelling rules and phonological rules.
Methods: A total of 20 students from 1st to 3rd grade participated in this study. Research tools were composed of four different types of assignments based on different spelling types, which were dictation based assessments selected upon four different phonological rules.
Results: First, there were significant differences between children with language-learning disabilities and typical developing children by spelling type. Also, there were significant interactions between groups and spelling type. Second, significant differences were observed between children with language-learning disabilities and typical developing children by phonological rules. There were no interaction effects between groups and spelling type. Third, children with language-learning disabilities made more errors than typical developing children in phonological processing and orthographic processing, whereas the difference between the two groups in morphological processing errors was no significant.
Conclusion: The difference in spelling performance by spelling type and phonological rules suggest that we must take spelling types and phonological rules into account when teaching spelling skills to children with language-learning disabilities. In particular, differences in the number of morphemes observed in spelling performances imply that we must consider incorporating morpheme developing disciplines when teach-ing in spelling skills.
