Miss C's SPELLING ACTIVITIES

 

 

Using the words on this week’s spelling list (or super challenge list), complete three activities by Friday. 

Staple your pages together and turn in as a packet. 

One of your spelling activities must be the signed pretest (idea number one). 

Please complete your activities in your neatest writing. 

Idea 1

MUST DO!

Have an adult at home give you a practice test using all of your spelling words.  Write any misspelled words three times each.  The adult must sign the test.
Idea 2 Using ten spelling words as the lines in a drawing, draw a scene on a blank sheet of paper.  Write each of the ten spelling words five times as you complete your picture.
Idea 3 Using different color pens or markers, write each spelling word as a complete word, but write each syllable in a different color.  For example, the word “mythical” might have myth in red, i written in blue, and cal written in orange. 
Idea 4 Letter Writing!  Write a letter to a friend or family member using all your spelling words.  Underline each spelling word.
Idea 5 Cut and Paste!  Cut letters out of magazines to spell your spelling words.
Idea 6 Create a mnemonic or trick to help remember how to spell ten of the words on your list.  Write out and/or describe each mnemonic.
Idea 7 Write ten sentences using spelling words.  Each sentence must be at least eight words in length.  Underline the spelling words.
Idea 8 Write the definitions of all of your spelling words. Use an electronic or standard dictionary.
Idea 9 Create a crossword puzzle using at least ten spelling words.  You can use graph paper OR you can make one on the Internet. www.edhelper.com/crossword.htm  Don’t forget to print an answer sheet.
