| dc.description.abstract | The distinction of different types of misspellings in typically developing writers is important to understand spelling development and identify instructional targets (e.g. Bahr et al., 2012). That demands an adequate system for categorizing the misspellings; after several proposals for Portuguese, Baptista, Viana and Barbeiro (2011) created a very comprehensive and adequate one. It is also important to analyse longitudinal data to understand possible development patterns among typically developing writers, which is still partially lacking for European Portuguese. This pilot-study has three research questions: (1) what are the most common misspellings in grades 2 and 4? (2) why those errors are predominant? (3) what are the spelling development patterns in students with high and low performance? To answer those questions, we analyse 2 texts written by 10 students in grades 2 and 4 (n = 40 texts) from EFFE-On corpus (Rodrigues et al., 2015), all from Lisbon and reporting no hearing or language problem. To analyse the misspellings, we used an adaptation from the proposal by Baptista, Viana and Barbeiro (2011) with 9 categories (related to phonology, morphology or orthography). The most common misspellings in grades 2 and 4 belong to accentuation and irregular spelling categories, but in grade 2 there are also many errors related to contextual and general orthographic rules. While the high-level writers show more difficulties with accentuation and irregular spellings, low-level writers present also other errors and no improvement in irregular spellings from grade 2 to 4. The motivations and educational implications of these results are discussed. | pt_PT |
