Activities for spelling lists

This blackline master book contains a variety of activities which can be used with any spelling list – be it from a textbook or a spelling journal.

the activities are designed to provide opportunities for children to practise their words, look at them and use them in a variety of ways to develop understanding and recall
the activities can be copied onto coloured or plain card and laminated for protection
they can be placed in a central location for students to access during planned spelling sessions or whenever they wish
the benefit of this system is that students can, to some extent, choose the activities they wish to use to develop their understanding of their spelling list
the book also contains a Spelling Activity Checklist for students to record which activities they have used to consolidate each spelling list
a Have-a-Go blackline master is also provided to encourage students to attempt to spell unfamiliar words before seeking help, thus encouraging a more independent style of learning
