Foreword

New wave spelling — A phonics-based approach is a seven book spelling workbook series providing students with a solid framework for becoming independent spellers. It is a comprehensive whole-year program of 20 units of work. The spelling lists within each unit are organised with a phonetic emphasis. Words have been selected from proven contemporary Australian lists and are words to which students can relate and use in their writing. The focus at the beginning of each unit encourages students to identify the key features, patterns, rules, similarities and differences of the list words, as well as the phonemes (sounds) within words and the different ways they are represented (graphemes). The variety of activities based on each word list provide students with opportunities to use different strategies and consolidate their understanding of the particular focus.

How to use the workbook

The student workbook has 20 units of work, each comprising of four pages. The units contain a list of 10 words to be learned and four or five revision words taken from the previous workbook. Units do not have to be completed in order. Refer to page 10 for an overview of each unit focus and activity types. Students follow the instructions to identify the focus of the list. It encourages the students to look for patterns, similarities and differences within the list and identify ways to remember how to spell each word.

Unit number and focus

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

Students should follow these steps when learning each word. It is a well-tested and effective method of remembering how to spell words.

Look at the word – Look for how the focus sound is spelt. Look for words within words and the shape of the word. Say the word – Sound out the word phonetically. Break the word into syllables if appropriate. Trace the word – This can be done with a finger or pencil in the air, on the page, on a partner’s back etc. Cover each word – A time factor can be built into this part. Write the word – Space has been given for two tries over the course of the unit. Check the word with the original.

Students tick the T (Test) column if they spelt the word correctly in their test. They tick the D (Dictation) column if they spelt the word correctly in dictation. If the word was not used in dictation, they leave it blank. See pages 12–31 of this book for suggested dictation sentences including list and revision words.

ew i ev Pr

Teac he r

The first page of each unit contains the list words. The majority of the lists are grouped according to the way phonemes (sounds) are represented (graphemes). Other groupings include blends, difficult words, patterns in words and contractions. Note: Some teachers may decide to pre-test the list words.

. te

m . u

Note: A poster outlining these steps is provided on page 50 of this book.

Students write any list words, revision words, words from dictation or any other words that are causing them difficulty here. Selected words can be transferred to pages 82 and 83 of their workbook. Suggested activities for learning these words can be found on pages 32–43 of this book.

The activities on the first and second pages of each unit are designed to provide students with many opportunities to complete or write the list words. A variety of word study and word building activities extend and develop students’ knowledge and understanding.

The fourth page of each unit features a crossword. It includes every list word and some revision words. Students can refer to the opposite page to choose from the list or revision words for crossword answers.

Each unit features a selection of revision words from the previous workbook. Students are required to identify the focus of these words and complete activities to help them remember how to spell them. Many of the revision words have been included in the suggested dictation sentences for the unit. Teachers may wish to include the revision words in the final test of the unit. Results can be recorded on pages 52 and 53.

Practice is provided for students to build on and create a larger bank of words for their use and understanding. A word building template can be found on page 42 of this book. Word building examples for every list and revision word can be found on pages 12–31.

Coloured reference charts, with a number of graphemes used to represent vowel and consonant sounds, are included at the front and back of each student workbook. Suggestions for using the charts are: • Locate and point to particular sound boxes. (This is essential if students are to use the charts effectively.) For example: — Find the sound box for the initial sound in your name, school, suburb, friend’s name, pet etc. — Find the sound box after or before a particular sound. — Count the graphemes in particular sound boxes; e.g. long i (five) • Solve silly grapheme puzzles; e.g. mm-ee-u (Mia) • Create silly grapheme puzzles to name animals, colours, fruit, vegetables; e.g. tch-i-ck (chick) • Draw a picture for each sound in his or her name; e.g.

Using the spelling strategy cards

The following spelling strategies are based on a metacognitive approach. This approach teaches students how to think about their thinking in a logical and structured way, in order to become more successful independent spellers. A set of photocopiable cards, provided on pages 44–49, encourages students to reflect upon their learning.

What does it mean?

• What

It is essential that students know the meaning of the word and can use it in context.

New wave spelling – Teacher resource book – B

Identifying the grapheme used to represent a sound, and understanding that different choices are available, is essential. Students should be encouraged to locate the appropriate sound box on the vowel or consonant charts in their workbooks. For example: coat, crow

Students should understand the importance of applying their spelling knowledge in different contexts. Students’ writing should provide evidence of how well they apply the spelling strategies they have learned. Generalising knowledge gained is essential for students to become independent spellers.

Assessment suggestions

There are many different ways to assess and record spelling. Below are some suggestions for assessment and recording to help support the New wave spelling workbook program. • Teachers may decide to pre-test the list and/or revision words. The results can be used as a benchmark for how well the

students learn the list or for identifying which words they need to focus on throughout the two-week program. Errors can be transferred directly to the Word watch section. A disadvantage of pre-testing is that poor spellers could possibly have many errors, which may affect their self-esteem. Although the activities provided would benefit all students, those who are good spellers with no errors may not be motivated to work on the unit. • Teachers may decide to incorporate partner testing of a selected number of words each day, with results recorded formally or

r o e t s Bo r e p ok u S

informally and errors transferred to Word watch.

• Teachers may post test the list and revision words at the conclusion of the two-week program to evaluate the students’

progress and record errors.

ew i ev Pr

Teac he r

Photocopiable recording sheets are outlined below.

Individual spelling records can be kept (see page 52). The BLM can be used to record pre-test, partner test and final revision and list word test scores, along with anecdotal notes. These notes can become an overview of the student’s progress in spelling over the 20 units and can be discussed during parent/teacher conferences and in reports.
