I found several results on google search "visual spelling".
I think your question is very interesting. I did not learn to spell phonics-based, but rote-memory. I ended up using visualization strategies to learn to spell. I often have to write the word down in order to spell, or close my eyes and visualize while tracing out the letters in the air with my fingers.
Perhaps ask your daughter how she remembers the long words, and help her apply those strategies to the shorter words?
