Word Study

Word study can help students make connections between phonetic rules and apply them to their written work.  The past two weeks we have done a variety of activities.  One activity we have done has been word sorts.  Students are given a list of words and they need to organize them by phonetic rule.  Here is an example of a word sort we completed.



We also have been learning about onset and rhyme.  Students worked with a partner to create words using onset and rhyme.  Here are some examples of words the students created.  





We have also been working on assessing each student's knowledge of our third-grade high-frequency words.  We will be beginning Buddy Spelling soon!
