WORD WALL

We do word wall every day at school. During word wall we practise our 5 new words every week. We start by doing Word Observations. This is where we look for spelling patterns, tricky parts and little words inside of big words. We then do word wall chants to practise spelling them. After that we play games to remember the words like "Don't Break The Ice", "Buzz Off Your Out", "Smack" and "Hangman". We than do different activities to learn the words. These activities are decorative writing, play dough, letter stamps, magnetic letters, foam letter blocks, typing on our pretend keyboards and using "Spelling City". At the end of the week we have to tell Mrs R one thing about each word before we give it a round of applause and send it to the word wall.
Check out our Animoto to see some of the activities we do!
