Spelling Lists

A spelling notebook will be sent home with your child's spelling list on Monday, August 19th. 

Spelling homework will not be assigned. Students should study their spelling

words and be prepared to test on Friday.

Below is a list of ideas for studying spelling words:

_____Take an oral practice test.

_____Take a written practice test.

_____Make up sentences using the words.

_____Make flash cards and practice with a friend.

_____Use clay or play dough to make letters to spell your words.

_____Smooth out shave cream, sand, or flour and spell your words.

_____Rainbow spelling: Write each word in every color of the rainbow.

_____Put your words in alphabetical order.

_____Make a list of words that rhyme with your spelling words.

_____Dribble a ball or jump rope while spelling your words.

_____Write each spelling word five times each.

_____Tape record yourself spelling your words.

_____Write your words on someone’s back with your finger.

_____Write your words in the air with your finger.

_____Write your words on a chalkboard or with sidewalk chalk

_____Make a crossword puzzle or word search puzzle with your words.

_____Cut out letters from magazines or newspapers to spell your words.

_____Use magnet letters to spell your words.

_____Use pipe cleaners to make the letters to spell your words.

_____Use a typewriter or computer to type your spelling words.

_____Use alphabet cereal/pasta to spell each spelling word.

_____Write a story. Try to use all of this week’s spelling words.

_____Use pieces of yarn to form the letters in your spelling words.

The spelling notebook can be kept at home; it does not need to be

returned to school.
