This workbook contains 74 worksheets to help fourth and fifth-grade students with 296 frequently misspelled words. Each page lists 8 challenging words in Sign Language (ASL alphabet) for your students to decode, followed by a page where students write sentences using these eight tough words. This workbook contains all the materials you will need to teach the ASL alphabet: two full-page ASL alphabet pages, twenty-six ASL alphabet flashcards, and thirteen ASL alphabet quizzes. Just copy and watch their excitement grow with these challenges. These printables are perfect for students who need a challenge or enrichment. Use at a literacy center or in a vacation packet. I, however, use them with every student (ESL or ELL, Gifted and Talented, RSP, everyone).
Your students will work through 296 frequently misspelled words for grades 4 and 5, like: library, judgement, receive, kayak, changeable, misspell, pneumonia, beige, all right, scissors, jewelry, vacuum, rhyme, conscious, quite, leisure, dictionary, tsunami, Wednesday, intelligence, tyranny, camouflage, and many more. Go beyond the curriculum with this packet, as you prepare your students for the writing challenges that lie ahead. Imagine your principal walking into your classroom and seeing ALL of your students engaged in fingerspelling multisyllabic words, and you being able to point to the Common Core standard that this activity addresses:
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.4.3a: Use combined knowledge of all letter-sound correspondences, syllabication patterns, and morphology (e.g., roots and affixes) to read accurately unfamiliar multisyllabic words in context and out of context.
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RF.5.3a: Use combined knowledge of all letter-sound correspondences, syllabication patterns, and morphology (e.g., roots and affixes) to read accurately unfamiliar multisyllabic words in context and out of context.
And, if you want wildlife photos mixed with fingerspelling, then take a look at my “ASL Alphabet Series”:
