Many teachers today believe that concentrating on spelling and grammar shuts down creativity.
My children were taught that spelling isn't important and it's more important to be creative,
It's like nails on a chalk board to me when someone blatantly misspells words.
Or when someone starts a sentence with "her and me", yet I know teachers that do it.
I think I'm just an old-fashioned fuddy duddy.
I think teachers may well be correct that it shuts down creativity to worry about spelling and grammar.
