Title – Important Words to Learn By – Debbie Haren Primary Subject – Language Arts Secondary Subjects - Grade Level – 4th-5th grade Materials paper pencils dictionary The list of words below. I would put just one word at a time on a piece of paper and use one word a week as a bonus on spelling tests. Activity: Pass out one word on the list to the class. One day have them look up the word for homework and find out what it means. Then talk about it in class the next day. Then the next day for homework they can use the word in a sentence and write it down on the same paper. The next day they can write it 5 times and turn it in for homework and then if they write it correctly and give the defintion on their spelling test they can earn 2 extra points. They could earn 1 for spelling the word correctly and 1 if they give the defintion. These words will be very important on proficiency tests: Word list: Depending on the age and the skills of the children you might want to just be sure they understand the words and what they mean. The teacher could do one a week and not use any type of testing just use the words often in class everyday!!
