Spelling Practice

Almost every week our class is responsible for completing a 2-5-8 Menu for Spelling.  Students are given the opportunities to practice their Spelling words in a way that they choose. I have found this to be a great alternative to me assigning a Spelling assignment each day of the week.  Students are allowed to pick their activities and find the activities that they like the best!  I wanted to let you know about a few great links that I found that can help our students create Printable Word Searches and Crossword Puzzles.  This is a great way for students to practice their Spelling words and their computer skills!  Please check out the great links located on the right-hand side of our blog and below!
