I’m back! After taking a week-long {much needed} blogging break, I’m back to join in on the after school party link-up! There were LOTS of great ideas shared last week on the link-up, but here are a few of my favorites:
It’s a life-sized Magna Doodle with Happy Hooligans! Jackie shares how she did this with the younger children in her home, but his idea is such a great one for practicing letter formation and spelling words!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE The Measured Mom’s series on Word Study, an alternative to traditional spelling. You have to check out her series! Word study is my absolute, all-time favorite approach to teaching phonics and spelling.
10 {Unconventional} Building Blocks Kids Love by School Time Snippets {Guest Post on Frogs and Snails and Puppy Dog Tails}
Summer Word Vocabulary Jar by What We Do All Day. Super simple, yet HIGHLY effective! Love!

Thanks for featuring my post!
You’re so welcome! I loved it!
I’ve contacted you earlier when you did your series on word sorts, and now your link to the Measured Mom has me considering that approach again. Do you know of any resources that contain lists to use for sorts? My son will be in 4th grade, but since we’ve done very little formal spelling I don’t know if he’d be on grade level or not.
