Third Grade Spelling

Yesterday morning I gave M 26 words to spell that are third grade level. She got 11 right and 15 wrong. What my plan is, is to now use those 15 she got wrong and they will be her spelling words for next week. I figure I should give her ones she really doesn't know, not just some list from somewhere. She liked the idea and she's getting a lot better about trying to spell something even if she really doesn't know the correct spelling. She attempted every word phonetically, so that was good to see. We sat down afterward and went over which ones were wrong and why they were wrong. We then discussed the craziness of the Engligh language. ; )


Have you tried this website?

You can type in the 15 words she missed and the computer will make up games AND test her! I so wish we would have had this stuff when mine were younger.
