If I wrote that poorly at 9, I’d likely have been held back.
I still remember when I was 7 and scored 19/20 in the weekly spelling test. The third word was “put” and for the life of me I couldn’t remember how to spell it and wrote “poot” knowing it was wrong. I remember the last (toughest) was “marriage” and I had no issues. I had a perfect gold star run up until then :(
Yeah, my teachers would’ve been pretty concerned if I couldn’t spell July in 4th grade (instead they were like, “she’s super book smart but holy shit she has zero social skills,” on all my report cards). But I guess you never know what else was going on. I have a friend with a learning disability who is smart but still can’t spell even as an adult. Some of my other friends are way smarter than me and spelling just isn’t their strong suit for whatever reason.

Words are spelled stupidly so being bright makes this harder.
Feel that. I distinctly remember forgetting how to spell “of” and wanting to write “uv”.
Lol, I spelled it “ov” on my spelling test.
I still remember what ruined my 100% average in grade 1. The antonym of “in front”, I was rushing and wrote “in back” instead of “behind”.
