Because today is Friday and we have already had our weekly spelling test, our students spent this afternoon's word work practice time using math and social studies content words. We practiced spelling words like digit, addend, sum, property, parentheses, estimate, rural, urban, suburban, and community. It is just as important for us to practice our content words as the sight spelling words each week. We know that word work not only improves our spelling but our reading and writing skills as well.
The different word work stations we've been practicing are stamping, magnetic letters, white boards, and playdoh with cookie cutter letters.
