[quote=Anonymous]print off some 1st and 2nd grade spelling lists from the internet. Have him do different "word study" activities with the lists. Use one list per week and work on those words that week. Mondays he writes those words three times each, Tues. he alphabetizes them. Wed. he uses each word in a sentence. Thurs. you give him a quiz (using a white erase board -- kids love dry erase boards especially when they might want to make changes). If he gets them all correct, he gets whatever reward you have come up with (video time or whatever). Repeat each week and move toward the 3rd grade level spelling lists. Is your child doing "word study" in school or as part of his normal homework? Should be.[/quote]
