여름 스펠링 캠프 - 3학년 및 4학년 - 스펠링 펀 리뷰

No better time for a spelling review than at Summer Spelling Camp - Spelling Fun Review. After spelling all year in school, learners shouldn't forget what they've learned and prepare for the next grade. That's what we do but in a fun, no pressure way.

In this four week summer spelling camp, learners will improve their spelling; learn, review, practice grade appropriate spelling words; learn, apply spelling word families, spelling patterns, spelling rules and learn dictionary skills to foster better spelling. 

Each week, learners will be given a new set of spelling words, a different list of words where we'll target spelling patterns, spelling word families, rules and apply them to words on their spelling list.

Learners will simultaneously build a vocabulary of new words and be able to spell them too. They will learn dictionary skills: how to look up words, their definitions, synonyms, antonyms, homophones of words, multiple meanings, word roots, and construct sentences using their spelling words. They will build a foundation for regular writing, giving learners a head start on spelling, punctuation, other concepts and give them a great understanding of the relationship between letters and sounds.

Learners will be given a new spelling list at the beginning of each week posted in the classroom on Sunday, giving them time to look over the new list and begin reviewing the list and learn to spell each word on the list even before coming to class. They will be given exercises and activities to complete during their three days in camp each week which will help strengthen their ability to spell words from their list. Occasionally learners will engage in spelling games, spelling crosswords puzzles, and friendly spelling bee competition with the other learners in the class.

Learners are encouraged to create a set of flash cards each week and continue practicing the words after class ends and throughout the week. If learners remain in the camp all four weeks, they will have a complete set of 80 words that they've been presented with in camp. Pop quizzes may be given from time-to-time.

Each week has new spelling lists, activities and material so learners can begin at any time. This summer review camp is ongoing for four weeks, three days a week with four different spelling lists throughout the camp. Learners benefit most by transitioning through all four weeks but learners can enroll at any time during the camp. This camp can be repeated, too.

When learners are ready to take a year long course designed primarily to supplement spelling that they have in school or use as part of their home school curriculum, learners can transition to my "Spelling Words Can Be a Breeze - Spelling Practice for 3rd & 4th Grade" year long course or if ready and old enough, to "Uncover Spelling Secrets: Becoming a Confident Speller."

Summer Spelling Camp - Grades 3 & 4 Spelling Fun Review is a great place for your learner to review what they've learned during the school year, continue to practice this much needed life-skill, so what they learned during the year is not lost during the summer.
