Is Spelling Really Important?

The other day, one of my students asked how to spell Korea. He was writing in his journal (and I don't help with spelling for journal), so I told him to just do the best. I looked at what he had written and it was spelled C-O-R-I-A. He showed me how he spelled it, and then he said, "I don't know for sure if that's right, but it's short for Korea!" So apparently Coria is SHORT for Korea... I learn something new everyday!
