Hello again,

I'm looking for short essays that are appropriate for a freshman writing
course aimed at Education majors (and whose writing topic is exclusively
language issues that are relevant to Education).

Do any of you know of any such essays on the following topics?

- how English spelling came to be so irregular
- English spelling reform movement(s)

Best,
Lynne
