Here are some great ideas for studying spelling words I found online:
1. Put the words in abc order.
2. Write a story using as many words as you can from your spelling list.
3. Write each spelling word 5 times.
4. Use scrabble tiles to spell the words.
5. Make a mini dictionary with word, picture, and meaning.
6. Make riddles with the spelling words as the answers.
7. Find spelling words in a dictionary and write their meaning.
8. Make spelling flash cards.
9. Divide words into syllables and code them.
10. Write a silly sentence using as many spelling words as you can.
11. Cut letters from magazines to spell the words.
12. Have a family member print the spelling words leaving out the vowels. Then fill in the vowels.
13. Take a practice test.
14. Make a word search.
15. Write spelling words by scrambling the letters, then unscramble them.
16. Write a sentence for each word.
17. Write each spelling word on two index cards and play a game of concentration.
We have actually done almost all of these through the years, but this was a good reminder for me of how many fun ways there are to study spelling!
I just ran across a fantastic website for spelling. It's www.spellingcity.com. My kids (10 & 11) are actually enjoying spelling! I signed up as a teacher, and am able to enter my own spelling list. The kids can go out and search the list (without needing to register) and play games and even take a practice test! It's amazing!
We have homeschooled our children from the start and we love every minute of it! This is my place to share my thoughts on homeschooling, my kids and living for the Lord. All the while being a little outside the box!!
