All spelling lists are phonics skill-based and are a component of our Pearson guided Weekly Focus. We will use a variety of activities on a daily basis to practice our weekly words. Daily review at home is also encouraged (see suggestions below).

Story: Unit 5
Focus Skill: *No new lists this week! You always have free access to Spellingcity.com if you want to practice and play some of your favorite games. |
*Suggestions for nightly word study at home:
Monday: Read over the words and the study sheet that is attached. Ask an adult if you need help pronouncing the word. If you can't read a word, it can be very difficult to spell it! Do a WORD SORT, and group words together that have similar spelling patterns. Tuesday: Write words #1-10, three times each. Say each letter as you write, and focus on letter patterns, syllable chunks, and prefixes or suffixes. Wednesday: Write words #11-20, three times each. Use the same study plan as listed for Tuesday. Thursday: Take a pretest. Ask an adult or older sibling to help you. You may also go on Spellingcity.com at any time, and take a practice test or work through your favorite activities. Additional Challenge Words: Spell Bowl team members are exempt from the regular weekly list. They will study the 750 word packet, and complete assigned tasks from the team coaches. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
