Super Spellers Starter Sets [Pehme köide]

Weakland, a literacy coach and consultant with experience as a fourth and fifth-grade learning support teacher, reading consultant, and reading specialist, supplies teachers with lesson sets and tools for teaching spelling to elementary students. He presents lesson sets for teaching spelling strategies, constructing spelling centers and teaching children how to use them, and teaching specific spelling features. Each lesson set includes a focus for the week, options for skill review and reteaching, a master spelling list of words for word study activities and differentiated word lists, a pre-test to determine what students know, examples of differentiated word lists, language for presenting a quick and easy spelling activity while giving students practice in multiple strategies, word cards for word sorting activities, word ladders, and suggestions for language to use during word and sentence dictation activities.
