Does reading helps you with your spelling?

Yes, reading can help you with your spelling, though it can help with vocabulary more. It can help you learn to use the correct verb tenses (do versus does, for example) and correct helping verbs (which are forms of "be"-- is, are, was, were, has, had, have, etc.). Reading also shows you new Words, along with the spelling and how the Word is used. You begin to notice patterns used in a variety of sentences, including how punctuation is used. Plus, reading is fun as you get taken away into the stories.
