Phonics
Spelling
Have children look for words that sound alike, but have different spellings and meanings. They can use the text or a dictionary, or they can brainstorm as a class. Start a list of homophones on the board.
Introduce the Spelling worksheet.
Word Work
Suffixes
Have the children write three sentences using verbs. Write the same sentences again using a different suffix to change the meaning of one word in the sentence. Have them rewrite each sentence so it makes sense.
