Individualized Spelling
I know I've been terrible about updating lately, but this morning I've been tossing around some ideas for spelling and wanted to put them out there for input and advice.
Where to get words from
Taylor's daily writing
History/Science vocabulary
Dolch basic words list
Review/previously missed words
5-7 words a day
Get next week’s list from this week’s writing.
Maintain positive attitude. Be on the same team.
Daily Spelling System
Copy today’s words.
Look for tricky parts.
Spell each syllable out loud.
Do a task card or spelling activity.
Take a verbal test when ready.
Use all words in 1 or 2 sentences without peeking!
Have Taylor keep her own problem words dictionary.
Keep a list of all previously learned spelling words.
Have a review week every 5th week with an incentive for a job well done.
