Activity 1:
Spelling Words
The spelling words are on the board and the students put their heads down. One student erases a word and heads go up. The student calls on someone to say and spell the word that was erased. Continue with the words until all are gone. Good memory skill and practice of words.
Extension:
The students could also be asked to tell the definition of the word erased. Or the person who gets to pick people gets to decide what he wants the person to do. For example spell the word or give a definition or use it in a sentence. The last 3 people standing could be given a piece of candy!
Activity 2:
Materials:
A spelling word list
chalkboard or dry erase board.
Activity:
Have a "Spelling Bee" in which all the students stand up. They all get to remain standing until they spell a word incorrectly.
I think this is a great way to get kids involved in their spelling words and to practice them together. The students really work hard to learn to spell their words correctly and learn them fast!! Great for motivation.
