Sorts – Please print the words out and have them pick from the following categories to do nightly at home. Your child only needs to do 1 a night.
1. Sort your words into categories -Always do this one on Monday night and have your child explain the rule to you. The rest of the week, your child may choose what he/she would like to do for the rest of the week.
2. Turn the word sorts face down. Time your child to see how long it takes them to sort them into the correct categories. Do this 3x (You may only choose this sort to do once a week)
3. Write the words 3x each.
4. Write the words in ABC order
5. Give your child a practice spelling test.
6. Play ball – Have your child grab someone to play catch and let the fun begin. The person helping your child will say the word to him/her and he/she will spell the work back to you. Every time your child throws the ball have them say one letter of the word. Continue until your child has spelled the word. If your child makes a mistake, correctly spell the word for them, and have them start over.
7. Glue Down Sort – Glue down your sorts and a piece of paper in the correct categories.
