Spelling with Mr. Tumm
We will be using a spelling program called Words Their Way. Students will take a spelling inventory a few times throughout the year. The inventory is used to identify their individual level. Students will then be grouped by common developmental spelling levels.
Each student will receive their spelling words as a set of cut apart words to be sorted. They will cut and sort the words first. They will then write them into a spelling notebook as a sorted list. The words will be stored in a recloseable bag that should be kept with their guided reading "baggie books." The book and spelling sorts should come home nightly and be done with help. There will be a front and back slip for both the book and sorts. Please check the slip and sign nightly.
There will be a quiz at the end of each week on the patterns, not necessarily the words from their sorts.
