Spelling Review
3 years later... We just finished All About Spelling, level 2. For review, I made up sentences that use all the words they learned in this level, plus a few other words I've taught them, like "-ould," "their," "what, when, where," etc. and some "-ly" words. I grouped them by our remaining school weeks, 3 sentences a day. I prefer sentence dictation rather than simply writing lists of words. It improves spelling retention, plus they review capitalization and punctuation at the same time. Efficient! Leaves time for their own pursuits. Here they are in case anyone else can benefit from them. Most are not great sentences. Some are really weird, untrue, borderline inappropriate... It's harder than I expected to craft good, short sentences from a word list! week 1 Buzz spills all six drinks on Mike. The garden queen uses a hose to water a rose bush.
