Introduction
(5 minutes)- Gather students together for the start of the lesson.
- Explain that you want to write a story. Narrate your process as you land on a subject, such as a famous spy, and suggest an opening sentence with a word from your word wall in it. Model struggling to spell the word as a lead-in to the introduction of a word wall.
- Show the word wall and review or explain to students that a word wall is a spelling tool that can help them find and spell difficult or irregularly spelled words.
- Explain that to find the correct word on the word wall, students will need to start by figuring out the first letter of the word they are looking for.
- Have students reflect on the word all by asking them to share what they share what they notice about it.
- Ask students to share one word they see on the word wall.
