70 Hands-On Lessons for Teaching Prefixes, Suffixes, and Homophones

 

Based on the best selling book, Phonics They Use: Words for Reading and Writing, this grade level series offers a fresh pairing of lessons and activities for kindergarten through fifth grade. In Making Words: Third Grade, Pat and Dottie provide third grade teachers with 70 Making Words lessons that cover all of the spelling and decoding skills included in most third grade curricula. After making words in the first part of the lesson, students sort  these words for homophones, prefixes, suffixes, spelling changes, and complex rhyming patternsallowing third graders at all levels to make progress in their spelling and decoding ability.
