   • Pick two words and write them once each.

2. Tuesday — Word Sort (15 minutes)

   • Sort words by vowel sound or word endings (e.g., -y, -le, -ie/ee patterns).
   • Say each word and clap syllables.

3. Wednesday — Trace & Write (20 minutes)

   • Trace each word once, then write each word twice independently.
   • Use one word to write a short sentence.

4. Thursday — Creative Practice (20 minutes)

   • Create a two-sentence mini-story using at least four spelling words.

5. Friday — Quiz & Review (10–15 minutes)

   • Give a short written quiz: dictate the 10 words in random order.
   • Have your child correct any misspelled words and rewrite them correctly.

Quick Activities for Spare Minutes

• Flash review: 2–3 minutes of rapid reading of the list.
• Rainbow writing: Write each word three times using different colored pencils.
• Keyboard practice: Type the words once each on a computer or tablet.

Parent Tips

• Keep practice short and positive; praise effort, not only accuracy.
• Focus on words the child misses — repeat those in extra short drills.
• Use words in everyday conversations (e.g., “Can you bring the purple cup?”).
• If a child struggles, break words into sounds (phonemes) and practice blending.

Assessment & Next Steps

• Track which words are missed on the Friday quiz; include those in next week’s warm-up.
• If your child spells 8–10 correctly consistently, move to more challenging word lists or add sentences that use two or more target words.

Use this pack as a flexible routine: adjust timing or activities to match your child’s attention span and learning pace.
