Spelling Tricks and Rules for 3rd-4th Graders
Author: Joanne Rudling
Publisher: Independently Published
ISBN: 9781082206801
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 86
Book Description
This colorful, fun book is ideal for kids (ages 8-9) who are struggling with American spelling and phonics. It focuses on areas that other spelling books and schemes ignore: - using memory tricks to remember tricky spelling- improving visual memory- knowing spelling rules & exceptions- building words with prefixes and suffixes The book is very useful for teachers and homeschoolers providing some great ideas for exercises, group work, and games in the classroom. Using a combination of well-known, proven literacy techniques and spelling strategies, this book will help kids learn, remember, and improve their spellings while reinforcing and building: spelling knowledge, confidence, and love of spelling and writing. The "curriculum" for this book has been taken from the UK statutory curriculum for this age group, and consultations with US teachers. Graham J Spooner of The Sensible Tuition Company: I enjoyed reading through the 'tricks and tips' for how to develop your spelling. This is exactly the sort of thing that my students are asking me for advice on regularly -- and there are a lot of things in here that I think will be directly useable in lessons.

Understanding by Design
Author: Grant P. Wiggins
Publisher: ASCD
ISBN: 1416600353
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
What is understanding and how does it differ from knowledge? How can we determine the big ideas worth understanding? Why is understanding an important teaching goal, and how do we know when students have attained it? How can we create a rigorous and engaging curriculum that focuses on understanding and leads to improved student performance in today's high-stakes, standards-based environment? Authors Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe answer these and many other questions in this second edition of Understanding by Design. Drawing on feedback from thousands of educators around the world who have used the UbD framework since its introduction in 1998, the authors have greatly revised and expanded their original work to guide educators across the K-16 spectrum in the design of curriculum, assessment, and instruction. With an improved UbD Template at its core, the book explains the rationale of backward design and explores in greater depth the meaning of such key ideas as essential questions and transfer tasks. Readers will learn why the familiar coverage- and activity-based approaches to curriculum design fall short, and how a focus on the six facets of understanding can enrich student learning. With an expanded array of practical strategies, tools, and examples from all subject areas, the book demonstrates how the research-based principles of Understanding by Design apply to district frameworks as well as to individual units of curriculum. Combining provocative ideas, thoughtful analysis, and tested approaches, this new edition of Understanding by Design offers teacher-designers a clear path to the creation of curriculum that ensures better learning and a more stimulating experience for students and teachers alike.
