"Emilia Ferreiro and Ana Teberosky (Table 2) developed a similar list
of spelling stages for students learning to write in Spanish. Their
list is summarized in Freeman and Freeman, 1997...

Ferreiro-Teberosky
 
1. Writing does not serve to transmit information. No distinction
between writing and drawing.

2. Fixed number and variety of characters. Letters of child?s own name often used.
 
3. Each letter stands for one syllable. Vowels are stable and conventional. 

4. Children move from syllabic to alphabetic hypotheses. More
consonants added to words

5. Children segment subject and predicate. Children notice characters
within syllables. They begin to make orthographic distinctions between
s and z, ll and y, and k, c and qu."

Spanish in the Bilingual Classroom. Portsmouth, NH: Heinemann.

Thank you very much. This is exactly what I needed. If anyone finds
any more references, that'll be great, but this one will at least give
a place to begin. And I appreciate the quickness with which you got
the information.  I'd been looking for weeks.
