I completely agree – I eliminated spelling as a subject from my fourth grade classroom last year & still taught those standards through writing. I am moving to second grade this year, however, and I am unsure about how to still cover those standards. What alternative methods do you recommend?
Hey there,
I recommend that you teach a spelling/word study skill on Monday and incorporate that skill throughout the week into your reading and writing workshops. You can see how I do that step-by-step in the free webinar I'm hosting all about spelling June 4 or June 9. Here is the sign-up link: https://outofthisworldliteracy.leadpages.co/spelling-webinar/ I hope that helps!!
Hi Jen!
My biggest question/concern is how to use Words Their Way with your spelling ideas.I get super stressed using words Their Way but our district has really invested into this spelling series. Thanks! I love your ideas!
