And here’s our new method for spelling. We’re using All About Spelling, but were having problems with the magnets, and since we’re not using blends or digraphs yet, we’re just using the letters from a workbook that I laminated.
The white sheet you can see above is from “Rainbow Spelling Letters,” or that’s what we called them when I was teaching. The letters perfectly fit into the space, but I haven’t found a duplicate of that yet. I’ve bought some cheap magnet letters that might work. We’ll see.
I’ve been loving using this and it makes spelling so much easier not trying to keep the magnets on the board. I’ll probably eventually get another couple of sets of the “Official letters,” but for now this is really working for us.
Sounds great!
Can you tell us a little more about how the program works?
Have you tried Banagrams? They might work too. Not for us though – daughter still hates spelling with a passion.
We need to work more on spelling. I do try to have my daughter spell outloud at least one word a day. Then she gets the chance to stump me with a word.
I'm with Anna – I HATE spelling – but always looking for fun ideas for the kids 🙂
Thanks for planning to link up this week!
I've heard of All About Spelling before. Glad you found something that works for you. My girls LOVE to do “spelling bees” every now and then.
We like AAS too but tend to agree with you in regards to the tiles, They could be of a slightly better quality.
This looks like fun. Selena now she just loves to spell from the top of her head to using our phonics tiles, anything, she will just spell.
