Teaching Spelling - Posters to help Teach Spelling

Teaching Spelling - Posters to help Teach Spelling


Each Sourcebook comes with five colorful 18" x 24" grade-level specific Teaching Posters to complement instruction.

Level 1

Teaching Poster 1: I Saw...
A visual demonstration of sentence expansion helps students create longer, more informative sentences.

Teaching Poster 2: Little e
The role of final silent e is explained through a motivational rhyme and lists of words that illustrate the rule.

Teaching Poster 3: There Is No a in They!
Students will no longer be challenged by the spelling of they once they learn this zany rhyme.

Teaching Poster 4: Can You Find Me?
A clever rhyme and a word list alert students that they hear one letter, but must remember to write two, in the double letter words.

Teaching Poster 5: What a Shame!
Words with the same rime, but different onsets, are examined through a poem to help students learn that their spelling patterns may, or may not, be the same.
