We routinely look back at our writing and find words that we need to work on. We collaborate as a team and then add the word on our wall for all of us to use.

Spelling choices

At readers' choices, we reviewed our writing and looked for words that we spelled correctly and incorrectly. Working in small groups, we helped each other by suggesting spelling choices or graphemes that suits the word. To help us remember this spelling, we used an application called Type Drawing to spell the word correctly and create an image.

Misspelled words matter

Students looked at misspelled words from writing samples and used them to apply their skill on spelling. They found different strategies of figuring out a how a word is spelled and used different resources. Our word wall now houses words that we have figured out and which are correctly spelled - a useful tool for authors!
