SPECIAL ED SPELLING WEEKLY AGENDA

GRADES: 3-12

MATERIALS:

  • spelling lists
  • writing materials

METHOD:

  1. Monday: Students will write their spelling word 5 times in cursive, then write them on file cards to be placed in their own file card holder. These words can be used to study or as a word bank when writing.
  2. Tuesday: Students are to place their words in alphabetical order and write them in a sentence using correct grammar and punctuation.
  3. Wednesday: I make up sentences spelling their words incorrectly, some sentences do not begin with capital letters, others have incorrect ending punctuation. We go over these the next day.
  4. Thursday: I make up word searches and fill in the missing letters papers, sometimes the students are to look up their words in the dictionary. Lower functioning students may just write down the page number.
  5. Friday: Grade the spelling tests in class, asking the students to correctly spell the word they missed. Perfect papers get 3 mini-tootsie rolls or other small candy available.
