To this end, ninety participants were randomly selected from Dinodanesh and Etrat high schools in Lordegan city, and they were given a spelling pretest based on their course book. Then sixty subjects whose scores were within the range of one standard deviation above and below the mean were selected as homogeneous and divided into experimental and control groups.
