They all are each hurriedly printing something on a piece of paper; suddenly the youngest child shouts "I got another one!"Her older brother grabs the dictionary and is looking up a word from his paper, "It is a word. I knew it. I rock!" The last child says, "Does anyone have the 6 letter word yet? I think I know what it is! It's my turn to pick the recipe today, right grandma?" What is the secret that these kids don't know? They are playing word scramble games especially designed to teach them new words and to improve their spelling...the kids think that they are just having fun! The teacher designed games are "kid friendly "classic word scrambles games. They are designed in the "Hangman" game style of a hint letter and blank lines for the missing letters. All children are familiar with this style. The words selected are words for kids 8-11 years with some enrichment words to challenge. These games are designed by a teacher so that adults too can have fun with kids playing word games that improve spelling and enrich vocabulary. Each game has words that are easy and more difficult to allow children of different ages to score stars in every game. Every child will score stars in the game. Children gain confidence in their skills and try harder. The games can be played with 5-6 kids at once or a child can have fun just playing alone or with his babysitter, parents, aunts and uncles, even older cousins. For adults, it is a game of speed thinking. Most adults would be familiar with most of the vocabulary words, but how fast can they think of them? Everyone will need paper and a pencil to work on the words. This helps children to get printing and writing practice while having fun.

Artfully Teaching the Science of Reading
Author: Chase Young
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000575616
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 139
Book Description
This inviting book is a bridge between two major strands of reading instruction that are often held in opposition: the science of reading and artful approaches to teaching reading. Although the current climate of literacy instruction positions these approaches as diametrically opposed, the authors Young, Paige, and Rasinski describe how teachers can use the science of reading to engage students in artful, engaging, and authentic instruction. The authors reveal how effective teaching is a dynamic process that requires agency and creativity and show how teachers make artful shifts based on the needs of students in specific contexts. Chapters include a range of examples and explanations of how artful teaching is integrated into reading instruction and how it can increase students’ motivation and positive attitudes toward reading. The concise and practical chapters cover key topics, including phonemic awareness, reading fluency, vocabulary, assessment, home and family reading, and more. This essential road map for all pre-service and in-service reading teachers restores the importance of teacher agency, supports the critical understanding of reading research, and allows teachers to use their knowledge, experience, and creative approaches in the classroom. This is the definitive guide to teaching reading as both an art and a science.
