This course begins with a review of the why and how of teaching your students how to spell the most common high frequency words in 1st grade. You learn how to continue this work, adding another important spelling strategy, visualization, as the 2nd graders' decoding skills begin outpacing their encoding (spelling) skills. This course includes how to integrate your spelling instruction with Kid Writing, lead your students in fun spelling activities and games, assess their progress, and differentiate your teaching to meet all students' needs.
