This class is a FLEX class. This means that you will receive a video recording of the lesson. I will teach the rule, and then have children spell words. They will be asked to pause the recording, spell the word, unpause it, and then check to see if it is spelled correctly. 
We will learn three of the six syllable types in this class, as well as other spelling rules.

Homework with 10 spelling words will be assigned. The homework will need to be printed. It will not be turned in, but it is helpful if it is completed. 
Three times during the week the students will be asked to participate in more learning regarding the spelling rules or their spelling words. 
 A question about a spelling rule or spelling word will be asked. (Can you find words that we haven't spelled that have a long o sound? or Use the spelling word moistness in a sentence. or Can you find a word with an open syllable and C + l-e syllable.)
Students may participate in "I have/ who has" activities involving spelling words. 
Students may create their own video explaining the rule
Students may be asked to answer the "challenge questions" 
Students may be asked to post a picture of a sentence they created and their drawing
They may be asked to provide clues like synonyms or vocab definitions to a spelling word and see if their classmates can figure out the spelling word. 
Games like Jeopardy may also be played. 
At the end of the week, they will take a spelling test and have a short quiz on the spelling rule. I will grade this and return it to them. (Kahoot)
