My favorite was kid writing, This may be bias seeing as this was the topic I was reporting on. This could be because I know more about it than others. I like the idea of just letting the kids write. At a young age it is important not to discourage their weak writing abilities. I also liked Sitton spelling. It covered a wide variety of ways for practice. Therefore, if one way works better for one student and another for someone else it would be easy to incorporate both.
