The
spelling words of the week are the words that are assigned in the homework
packets. Please study these every night! |
|
Spelling
tests will be given on Fridays.
|
|
Here
are some suggestions to help your child learn the spelling words:
|
Use magnetic or plastic letters (or make
your own on cardboard squares) to spell out
words. Scramble the letters, then have your child unscramble them to spell correctly
while saying each letter's name. |
Make a word ring by writing the words on index cards, punching a hole in top
left corner, and placing on a key ring. Add new words each week.
Test your child's knowledge of the words each night. A small incentive
might serve as motivation (when all words are learned for a particular week,
he/she gets to play a game, watch a special show, make a craft, etc.) |
|
Memory: Make two sets of words on index
cards to use for memory game. You can review other spelling words also to have
more cards.
|
Post the spelling words in a visible place
(refrigerator, toy chest, etc.) for constant exposure. |
Find the words in magazines, store fliers, books,
etc. |
