S-P-E-L-L-I-N-G
On Mondays he is given a pre-test with 10 words. If he spells the word correctly, he gets to pick a more challenging word from 1 of 3 lists. Mrs. Propst sent home several ways to get the children excited about studying their words. One of her suggestions was using Scrabble tiles. Nanny Nan sent this to Banks yesterday…
All the tiles zip up neatly in a little apple! He had the best time last night using the tiles to spell his words…
After he spelled the word, we tied in some Math. I had him add up how many points it was worth. Then he figured out which word was worth the most points and which word was worth the least.
This week there was a tie for the most points – object and January were both worth 17 points. The word worth the least was list {worth 4 points}. So far he has aced his spelling tests…let’s hope it continues!
