Episode: ACTIVITIES FOR WORD CLASS: A SELF-SELECTED APPROACH TO SPELLING INSTRUCTION
Description: The old, weekly spelling tests just don’t work. I have found no research to indicate that they do anything to improve students' ability to spell under real-life writing conditions. Word Class is a self-selected approach to spelling instruction that meets the needs of spellers at all ability levels. Here students select the words they wish to study each week. This podcast describes a variety of activities that can be used with word class.
