Abstract

Abstract This study investigates whether teaching spelling to high school students using different techniques, copy cover compare and flip folder would increase students spelling ability. Additionally, it explores students opinions and perceptions towards these techniques. The research conducted in Granada high school in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. Thirty-six male students participated in this study whose levels according to the course book were assumed to be B1 in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR). In this study a mixed research method was used where data was analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The first group was taught using copy cover and compare method which emphasizes repeated practice when errors occur in students spelling. Whereas the second groups were trained using the flip folder technique, a variation of Horns method (1967) which is a combination of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic techniques that were believed to enhance memorization. A posttest was utilized immediately after the intervention and the results showed that the CCC group outperformed the Flip Folder group. Also, a focus group interview was conducted on the research participants. The findings indicated that students held a positive view toward CCC technique stating that it had helped them remember words spelling.
