SPELLING SAMPLE LESSON H & M 3 RD GRADE LESSON 11 Robert W. Frantum-Allen

The Spelling Lesson

pre- kindergarten primary elementary intermediate middle high school Remember English now has over 1,000,000 words!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Emergent Letter name Within Word Pattern Syllable and Affixes Derivational Relations

Principals for a Research Based Spelling Lesson  Spelling taught every day (not on Mondays and Fridays)  Spelling is purposefully transferred to all writing (when a child asks “how do you spell” sound it out)  All spelling starts by activating the phonological processor first then the orthographic processor (sounds before letters/graphemes)  All spelling words follow a pattern (save trick words for something else like vocabulary or word of the day)

Model a lesson Before I model a lesson, lets make sure we have some rituals and routines established - discovery - echo - developing meaning - tapping out - phoneme/grapheme mapping - line spelling

Introduce the words with images so they can do independent homework Focus on activating the phonological processor Monday
