This pack contains 18 spelling cards (two per each page) that can be used as part of a spelling/ phonics intervention, starter, plenary or as part of a planned lesson. This pack contains the words that my students have consistently struggled to spell.
Each card contains three sections:
Make - Students have to make the word out of Play-Doe, sand, etc within the outline provided.
Look- The word is then used in a sentence with an image.
Write- Students write the word between the handwriting guide lines.
Write- Students write the word without the help of the guide lines.
These cards should be printed, cut out and then laminated in order for them to be re-used. All you will need is a dry-wipe pen and a tub of Play-Doh (or similar.) This activity works well as a more active alternative to the standard ‘look, cover, write’ method of teaching spellings.
