WORDS THEIR WAY
Rather than all students studying the same list of words each week, students will be given a placement test in order to help each child at their personal starting point. Students will be working on word patterns that they are currently struggling with.
Students will be in one of three groups. One group will receive their new words on Tuesday and test the following Tuesday. The other two groups will receive their words on either Wednesday or Thursday and test the following Wednesday or Thursday. During the week students will be doing activities in class and at home to help them recognize the patterns in their list words.
Students will have a SPELLING FOLDER that has their word list in it each week. In addition, students will be given an extra copy of their word list to put in their TAKE HOME FOLDER. This will be handed out one week prior to their spelling test.
