In the first grade , i would have spelling tests 3 times a week ...i used to study a lot for these tests ...and my mom would always say write them around your head ( as in spell them out in your head) ... i thought that she meant write the words on your skull ...so every day after studying i would get a pencil and lightly write everything that i had studied on my head! i thought it helped!
A childhood belief about spelling

- I used to believe that I would one day have a dog, and I would teach him to speak, read, and even write!— Gretchen
- my sister when she was little thorght head lice tried to borrow into her head to get to her brainAnon
- I could NOT understand why, if a pen worked on paper, it couldn't also write in thin air.— Can you guess what it is yet?
- i used to belive that if i fell on my head my head would come off while i was doing a cartwheelAnon
