1. Say and clap your spelling word's syllables.
2. Cut the word into syllables and say the syllable as you separate them into each flap.
3. Say a syllable and then spell each syllable one at a time.
4. Choose one syllable to cover up that is the easiest for you to spell.
5. Keep on spelling the word, a syllable at a time, and covering the flaps, easiest to hardest, until all of the flaps are down and you can spell the word without looking.
