I've been working with my 2 granddaughters on improving their spelling. I chose the Words Their Way Program because I wanted it to fit the needs of two different age groups with similar deficiencies in spelling skills.
As an Instructional Coach for a large school district, I have been trained by Pearson Learning Group and have trained teachers how to use the program. So I thought I would share some of the materials that I develop to go along with the sorts the girls and I will be doing together.
We are on Sort 8 in the yellow book, Third Edition. (Within Words)
This lesson focuses on "short and long i" vowel sounds. I noticed that many of the long i words have the ending ice. So I began gathering a collection of words that ended "ice."
