Effectiveness of Chunking Strategy in Teaching Spelling among Upper Primary Students
Abstract: This study investigates the effectiveness of the chunking strategy in improving spelling abilities among upper primary students. Chunking involves breaking words into smaller, more manageable parts to enhance memory and retention. A total sample of 64 students from an upper primary school participated in this study, which used pre - tests, post - tests, and delayed post - tests to measure their progress. The chunking method was compared to conventional spelling techniques. Statistical analysis revealed a significant improvement in students? spelling scores when taught using the chunking strategy, with sustained performance evident from the delayed post - test.
