Spelling Games

Hello, My philosophy on teaching spelling is that if students read, say, and write each word, this helps them to remember these words and how to spell them. It is important for students to have all three ways of practicing in order to get all of their senses involved, which then helps them to better remember.

In this class students will be learning a list of words, practicing reading, writing and spelling them. This class will be a weekly lesson with different list words each week for the grade level. Students will in class learn how to say each word, how to spell each word and complete an activity to help understand the definition of each of these list words. At the end of class students will play an interactive game online using nearpod.com, blooket.com, khaoot.it, gimkit.comt with that week's list words for students to get further practice with each word from that week’s list. Learning through gaming is a proven method in teaching. Today's kids love games on devices, and one of the best ways to help kids continue to learn is to let them do what they love while they learn. Each of these games require students to answer questions picking out the correct spelling for each of the list words for that week, they will not advance/win the game without doing this. These types of games are considered learning games, because the student is required to answer learning questions to advance in the game.
