Making a Spelling Log This book gives you a place to keep word lists of your own. It’s called a SPELLING LOG! You can make a Spelling Log on page 125. While you read, look for words that are INTERESTING. Listen for NEW WORDS used by people on radio and television. Include words that you need to use when you WRITE, especially words that are hard to spell. Before you write a word in your Spelling Log, check the spelling. Look up the word in a DICTIONARY or a THESAURUS, or ask for help. To help you understand and remember the meaning of a word, write a DEFINITION, a SYNONYM, or an ANTONYM. Use your word in a sentence.

Spelling Strategies Let us show you some of our favorite spelling strategies! Here’s a tip that helps me spell a word. I say the word. Then I picture the way it is spelled. Then I write it! When I’m learning how to spell a word, the Study Steps to Learn a Word are a big help. See page 2. I think of ways to spell the vowel sounds in a word. Then I try different spellings until the word looks right. When I don’t know how to spell a word, I sometimes just take my best guess! Then I check it in a dictionary or a thesaurus. Sometimes I proofread a sentence backward. I start with the last word and end with the first word. It really helps me notice words I’ve misspelled! Then I proofread for meaning. I proofread my work twice. First, I circle words I know are misspelled. Then, I look for words I’m not sure of.

When I write a word that is a homophone, I make sure the word makes sense in the sentence. When I’m writing a compound word, I think about how the two smaller words are spelled. Sometimes thinking of a rhyming word helps me figure out how to spell a word. I think about spelling rules, such as how to change a word’s spelling before adding the ending -ed or -ing. Drawing the shape of a word helps me remember its spelling. This is the shape of the word yellow.

When I proofread, I like to work with a partner. First, I read the words aloud as my partner looks at the spelling. Then we switch jobs.
