Spelling Homework
=== As a G7 Student, you are expected to study and know your words by quiz time. Your spelling homework will consist of two (2) of the following: ===

This is particularly good for visual and kinesthetic learners.
 * 1. Write each word 5 times. (MUST BE WRITTEN BY HAND) **

**2. Write each word in a sentence (MUST BE TYPED AND SAVED ON OR ATTACHED TO YOUR HW PAGE) ** Sentences need to make sense! This is particularly good for visual, kinesthetic and auditory learners. Be sure to underline each spelling word.

Use a sheet graph paper and create a grid of words going down and across. This is particularly good for visual learners.
 * 3. Create a crossword puzzle using all your words **.

Write two words that are spelled wrong but would sound the same along with the correctly spelled work. For example – 1. freidom __freedom__ freedum 2. __welcome__ wellcome welcum Be sure to underline the correctly spelled word. This is particularly good for visual and auditory learners.
 * 4. Write a “find the correctly spelled word” worksheet with all your words (MUST BE WRITTEN BY HAND) **

This is good for visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners. This can be difficult, so choose it only if you can understand all the definitions.
 * 5. Find definitions for each word and rewrite them in your own words .**

Using an audio program like Windows Sound Recorder (gravador de som) or Audacity, record yourself spelling each word as if in a Spelling Bee (for example, “assume, a-s-s-u-m-e, assume.” Then, upload your sound recording onto the Wikispace (make sure there is a page with your name and “Homework” on it. Send the teacher an email with a link to the page to inform them how you did your homework. This is particularly good for auditory learners. For each of your words, find four different word forms. Especially try to make other parts of speech. Example: __Receiver__ //received, receiving, receipt, reception.// This is especially good for visual and auditory learners.
 * 6. Record yourself spelling the words. **
 * 7. Write 4 different word forms for each word, or 4 words that have the same base (MUST BE WRITTEN BY HAND) **

[] You need to have the definitions and the words. Copy and paste your puzzle and clues to a word document, and type in your word list as a resource. This is good for visual, and kinesthetic learners.
 * 8. Make a Criss-Cross Puzzle Using Discovery PuzzleMaker **

It is your choice! Pick two assignments that you think will help you best learn the words. Try different ones on different weeks to determine which works best for YOU! One will be due each __Tuesday__, and the second on __Wednesday__.
