Section Nine - Práctica de Ortografía (Spelling Practice)

Let's take a in-depth look at the Spelling Section activities

Updated over a year ago

In this section, the students practice spelling words, grapho-phonemic knowledge, and auditory processing skills that they have learned.

Initially, students identify the sound and then write the letter, or letters, that spell the sound. Eventually, students practice spelling words using their grapho-phonemic knowledge.

Some examples of activities from this section include:

  1. In this activity type, you verbally review the sounds and letters of words. Then, the students write them. Each lesson works on one previously learned sound.

  2. In this sound identification activity, you dictate the word in gray and the students try to identify if the sound is present in the word by marking yes/no. The students cannot see the dictated words as indicated by the crossed out eye icon.

  3. In this activity type, the students write words and sentences on the whiteboard. It is important that the students write the words and sentences in their notebooks as well.

  4. In this interactive activity, the students rearrange letters to spell words. The letters reset as the students advance to the next page.

  5. Here is an auditory/verbal task where the students identify diphthongs sounds in words.

  6. In this fill-in-the-blank style activity, the students select the correct plural and place it by the end of the word.

  7. In this text based activity, the students code the selected words by adding the accent on top of the vowels when needed.

  8. Here the students categorize parts of speech (nouns, articles, verbs, adjectives) by placing each word in the column where it belongs and then adding them to the whiteboard.

  9. In this activity, the students have to change the letters to uppercase in a paragraph by writing the words with the capital letters on the whiteboard.

  10. Using this fill-in-the-blank activity, the students place the prefix/suffix/roots in the blank spaces to complete the word. Then, the students have to write the word correctly on the whiteboard.
