Go beyond traditional spelling activities and scaffold students into deeper analysis of "word-studying" concepts with these letter name-alphabetic spellers word study notebook activities. In the Letter Name-Alphabetic Spellers word study activities, students distinguish between beginning consonant sounds, create words by matching a beginning sound to same-vowel and mixed-vowel word families (onsets and rimes), create words using digraphs and blends, add short vowels in CVC words, notice how preconsonantal nasals change the spelling and pronunciation of words, learn about r-controlled vowels, match contractions to their expanded form, and more! Have no "word study" fear, though! Answer keys are provided to support you as you teach these lessons!
