Frequent Spelling Patterns for Long i words
Channel: Hannah Oberlander
Date: 2020-09-16

In this mini lesson, we will be recognizing the frequent spelling patterns for long /i/ words.  Students will review the long /i/ sounds made with the final 1, -igh, -ind, /i/ at the end of a syllable, and i-consonant-e.  

We are going to use p. 4 in our spelling practice books to take our notes today as we look at these spelling patterns.  Students review syllables and are introduced to the concept of homographs. Lesson ideas inspired by Rebecca Sitton's Sourcebook for Teaching and Spelling and Word Skills for Fourth Grade Teachers, 3rd Edition.
