//**Spelling Words**//

by Yvette Ray

//**Lesson Summary (Hand it in vs. Publish it summary)**//

The teacher will introduce a set of weekly spelling words. The students will complete the project by the end of the week to demonstrate an understanding of the spelling words. The students will create a You Tube Quick Capture in which they will model and spell previous studied spelling words. //**[The teacher will demonstrate how to use You Tube Quick Capture]**//

//**Hand it in Teaching**//

Students will copy spelling words from board. Students will write spelling words 5x and make flash cards. Students will make a sentence using the spelling words. Students will use spelling words in everyday speech. Students will have a pencil and paper test at the end of the week.

//**Publish It**//

Students will write spelling words on paper. Students will make their own flash cards. Students will make a sentence using the spelling words. Students will create a You tube Quick Capture to demonstrate and share knowledge based skills of the weekly spelling words.

//**Project Based Learning/Student Engagement Connections (Strategies)**//

Students will be creating a You Tube Quick Capture of themselves using their spelling words. Teacher and teacher assistant will model the spelling words. Student 1 will call out/say the spelling words using the flash cards with the pictures of back. Student 2 will say: repeat that or please use in a sentence. Student 1 will then say the word again and/or put the word in a sentence. Warning: student 2 can not use the same sentence. Student 2 will begin spelling out the word. This video will extend oral language skill. It will help students learn skills of phonemic awareness. The student will learn sound-letter correspondences. The students will use decoding skills. This type of learning engages the students. This is a neat way to stop the boring traditional spelling routine. The students get to see themselves are they speak and hear the recording in their own voice to see how they sound when spelling/speaking. This activity will be done in class. The class will be separated into sets of twos; student 1 and student 2.

//**Connection to Standards (Goals)**//

The learner will apply grammar and language conventions to communicate effectively.
 * Competency Goal 5: Primary K-3 Education**


 * 5.01 Spell correctly using**
 * previously studied words
 * spelling patterns
 * analysis sounds to represent all of the sounds in a word
 * representing spoken language with temporary and/or conventional spelling.

//**Assessment Strategies (Plan)**//

The whole class we assess one another. The students will have to know the words, say the words, spell the words, and use them in a sentences. The student will also mirror the letters in the air as he/she spells each letter. If the students decides to sound out the letters before spelling the word, that is fine. This is a different assessment from the traditional pencil and paper way of testing spelling words. The students will be assessed by their different levels and abilities. As we know assessment comes in all different forms. It is no longer has to be boring and the students can be assessed without them knowing it. Most students can not get what is in their head to the paper. This will give them confidence and assurance that they are capable of achieving their goals just from a slightly unique angle.
