Description

Lesson plans for nearly 100 tricky words students use most. Each lesson plan includes:

  • words related to the target word — foundation word, instructional sequence, new words, and common error
  • a thorough discussion of strategies for using the word with students — from phonemic awareness and visual clues to tips for modeling the word and using an analogy
  • a simple mnemonic device to help students remember words

Ready-to-use, reproducible activity sheets that complement many of the lessons provide opportunities for students to apply a strategy to familiar and new situations. This remarkable book offers students a foundation for future learning with the tools they need to spell and use language effectively.
