In keeping with the authors’ belief that the hands-on word sorting approach to word study is invaluable to teachers and students alike, this volume presents 59 prepared sorts covering the complete curriculum of word study for learners in the within word pattern stage of spelling development. Complete with blackline masters, specific teacher directions, suggestions for follow-up activities, and spellchecks for ongoing assessment, the word sort lessons in this book help teachers to encourage students to think about words and reach conclusions about how the spelling system works. This edition includes a number of new features to support effective teaching and learning, such as clearly stated generalisations for each lesson, suggestions on how to explore the meaning of words, and application activities that ask students to use the generalisation to spell unfamiliar words and develop spelling and decoding strategies. 

About the series

Word Study is a teacher-directed, student-centred approach to vocabulary growth and spelling development where students from Foundation to junior secondary engage in a variety of sound, pattern and meaning activities, sorting pictures and words. Word Study enables teachers to assess, clearly identify and document each student’s spelling stage, group students with common needs and tailor activities to improve students’ spelling knowledge. All resources have been adapted for Australian classrooms with British English spelling and Australian pronunciation.
