The 6-year-old came home with a trick for remembering how to spell "because":
Big Elephants Can Always Understand Small Elephants.
I remember this by spelling "because", and then slotting in words that create a statement about larger elephants understanding little elephants.
As a kid I always had trouble spelling "eight". In the spirit of the Grade 1 teacher's use of the mnemonic device, I've created my own, which I can only hope will assist my children:
Even Igloos Get Hot & Toasty.
We'll see if it works. Probably it will just result in a lot of documents featuring the number "eighat".
