Word Study groups have begun! There are 4 groups. I meet with each group on Monday to introduce the new words. Students sort and check their words every day. On Monday, they complete a writing sort in their Word Study notebook. On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, students get to choose an activity from the Word Study Tic-Tac-Toe board to complete. On Friday, students take a word study test and glue their words in their notebook. Students will be tested every quarter and groups will change based on test results.
The pink group is working on initial and final consonants.
The orange group is working on r-controlled vowels.
The red group is working on different vowel word families.
The green group is working on initial consonant digraphs.
Students should be sorting and checking their words at home on a nightly basis. They should also be completing one activity per night using their word study words and one activity per night using their word wall words. Please see the post on homework for more information.
