Ipads Are Awesome, but So Are Paper Spelling Games!

 Last week my students learned how to use Spelling City to practice their spelling words!  To create an account it is free!  I type in their spelling lists each week.  I have three levels, and three lists.  Then in their app they can search for my name to find their list.  Once they search for my name once, it saves on their ipad, and they can play games to practice their words any time.  The free app works best on the ipad since there is no flash player for the regular website.

They also love paper spelling games!  Here is our spelling game for the: or, ore, our, oar, ar vowel variant pattern.  Just click on the image to download for FREE!

One More Free Spelling Game!

I am taking a break this week from creating a new spelling game, but last week the third grade spelling pattern was dipthongs!  I had visitors come this weekend, so it was very fun and busy!  Our first official visitors since we moved that are not our families!  Here is a pic of some fun we had visiting my husband's sheep:

 Below is a free game!  Just click on the picture to download!  My TPT has more as well! 

Spelling Games Galore!

Now that we are almost a full quarter into the school year, things are getting busy!  I am balancing learning all about third grade as well as keeping my materials up to date for Common Core!  My team and I are working hard, but it is also hard to find time to post!

I have been creating spelling games each week for our Word Work station for Daily 5 during our Reader's Workshop time.  I am finally ready to share some games!  The first game is a Gingerbread Short Vowel Sort.  Click on the pictures for your free copy!

This is a review for third grade, but would also work for first or second grade!  It is a fun game, and you can get it for free at my TPT!

I also have created a third grade spelling pack with a folk tale, fairy tale, and fable theme!  You can also get this at my Teacher's Pay Teachers store.  Just click on the pictures below! 

 

The last game I have to share is a Compound Word Memory Match!  This is also free at my Teachers Pay Teachers store!

 I usually introduce a spelling game on the Monday of the week, then the third graders play for Word Work during the week.  I have four choices available during the week.  Two are the current spelling pattern for the week, and two are review.  If you have already covered these spelling patterns, they would be a great word work review!
