“…In stark contrast, various aspects of spelling have been extensively studied among English-speaking children (see, e.g., Allal, 1997;Beers & Henderson, 1977;Ehri & Wilce, 1987;Morris, Blanton, Blanton, & Perney, 1995;Perfetti, Rieben, & Fayol, 1997;Read, 1971;Templeton & Morris, 2001;Zutell & Rasinsli, 1989). There have also been a smaller number of studies exploring spelling acquisition among Spanish-speaking children (see, e.g., Carbonell de Grompone, Tuana, Piedra de Moratorio, Lluch de Pintos, & Corbo de Mandracho, 1980;Cuetos, 1993;Defior, Jiménez-Fernández, & Serrano, 2009;Defior, Martos, & Herrera, 2000) and among bilingual children (Arteagoitia, Howard, Loguit, Malabonga, & Kenyon, 2005;Estes & Richards, 2002;San Francisco, Mo, Carlo, August, & Snow, 2006). Adult spelling development, in contrast, has not been rigorously studied (Greenberg, Ehri, & Perin, 2002).…”
