These are the same spelling
words that the
Open Court
language arts program uses.
Every week there is a new
sound/spelling that the list focuses on.
The last lesson repeats
many of the unit's previous words
To build spelling
proficiency in class, we:
·
Discuss the spelling pattern or sound this week's list
focuses on.
·
View
a huge image of the word on our projection screen.
To do this, I change my MS
Word "zoom" to about 275% and then
I use my projector's zoom
to cut off the unnecessary borders
-
say the
word
-
spell the word clearly
-
say the word again
-
write the word clearly
on our paper
-
From there, the students
have created their own spelling list to study from for
the week!
-
We also use the same
sheet of paper to write the words four additional
times (OK, so old habits die hard).
