Words--Spelling And now a list of words that Noah can spell (as of March 2004 - aged 2½). As established on the page about reading, Noah has known his alphabet for some time.  And ever since Trudy bought him a wooden letter puzzle (at Hog Days in early September 2003), Noah's fascination with letters has remained.  He now has a double set of magnetic letters on the refrigerator that he likes to play with.  And he likes to type in Microsoft Word.  And he has a Dr. Seuss ABC book that he really likes.  And an episode of Blue's Clues about writing. So, he can spell.  No gimmicks here.  Put him up to any computer and let him type, or give him his letters (wooden or magnetic).  And here's a list of the first words he could spell (as with the signs and reading pages, this one is impossible to keep up): Noah Mom Dad Joe jump go hat clue blue cars fish hi key stop egg Trudy Diana 1-9 1-11 1-12 1-17 1-18 1-19 1-19 1-20 1-22 2-1 2-1 2-8 2-23 2-25 3-1 3-1 3-6 total: 17+
