Spelling Sample Lesson Robert W. Frantum-Allen
Principals for a Research Based Spelling Lesson • Spelling taught every day (not on Mondays and Fridays) • Spelling is purposefully transferred to all writing (when a child asks “how do you spell” sound it out) • All spelling starts by activating the phonological processor first then the orthographic processor (sounds before letters/graphemes) • All spelling words follow a pattern (save trick words for something else like vocabulary or word of the day)
10, 15, or 30 How much time should be spent on Spelling? - Actual skill part can be done in as little as 10 minutes a day if … - the classroom has established strong rituals and routines -strong systems of instruction are established (same routine every day) -clear goals are established -entire schools is on the same page
Model a lesson Before I model a lesson, lets make sure we have some rituals and routines established - discovery - echo - developing meaning - tapping out - phoneme/grapheme mapping - line spelling
