Katie attended a Japanese school; I tutored her in English. Curious about why English spelling and vowels are so inconsistent, we looked at Middle English. She may be the only 2nd grader ever to understand about the Great Vowel Shift.

This is a great site about the Great Vowel Shift that I will be using in classes:

Probably not second graders though!
