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. Each unit contains a list of 20 words to be learned and 12 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. Unit number and focus 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.

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

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 12–51 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 difficult words, homophones, prefixes, suffixes, contractions and silent letters. Note: Some teachers may decide to pre-test the list words.

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. 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. Note: A poster outlining these steps is provided on page 70 of this book.

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 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 72 and 73.

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 the list or revision word for crossword clues.

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: • 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. – 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. dge-a-ch (Jack) • Create silly grapheme puzzles to name animals, colours, fruit, vegetables; e.g. mb-u-n-k-ea (monkey) • 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 the metacognitive approach. This approach teaches students how to organise their thoughts in a logical and structured way, in order to become more successful independent spellers. A set of photocopiable cards, provided on pages 64–69 encourages students to reflect upon their learning. It is essential that students know the meaning of the word and can use it in context.

Meaning

Identifying parts of a word can help students to understand its meaning. For example: aqua (water) aquarobics (exercises in water)

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

• What does the word mean? • Can I use it in a sentence?

ew i ev Pr

Teac he r

• Do I know what parts of the word mean?

A common reason for spelling errors is incorrect pronunciation. For example: discribe (describe) ambolance (ambulance)

Hearing

• Can I pronounce the word correctly? • Can I break it into parts?

• Is there a wrong, but helpful way to say it?

Seeing

m . u

. te

identifying syllables — ca/tas/tro/phe ma/jo/ri/ty (Each syllable must have a vowel sound.) Using pronunciation tricks is a useful strategy. For example: unfortunate (unfortunate) parli-ament (parliament)

o c . che e r o t r s super

Many students find it helpful to close their eyes and try to visualise the word and/or its shape. For example: (jeweller)

• Can I see the word in my head?

• What letters make the sounds? • Is it like another word?

New wave spelling – Teacher resource book – G

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 their vowel or consonant charts in their workbooks. For example: abbreviate, escapee, celebrity, retrieve

www.ricpublications.com.au

R.I.C. Publications ®

Teacher information

Remembering

• What is the difﬁcult part?

Students need to identify letters within words that may cause them difficulty. For example: patience straight

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

Although there are exceptions to most spelling rules, they are very helpful and students need to know them. For example: Double the consonant to keep the preceding vowel sound short.

• Is there a spelling rule?

• Is there a trick I can use?

Students should be encouraged to learn spelling tricks (e.g.mnemonics) and to make up some of their own. For example: Would old Uncle Larry die? (would)

Reflecting

ew i ev Pr

Teac he r

Using the spelling strategy cards

Students need to be aware of spelling strategies and understand that how they learn is as important as what they learn.

• Did I use good strategies?

• How do I feel?

o c . che e r o t r s super

Applying

• Can I use the word in dictation?

• Can I use the word in my writing? • Can I now spell other words with similar patterns?

R.I.C. Publications ®

Self-esteem is related to perceived success and it is important that students acknowledge their successes and are motivated to continue learning.

m . u

• Could I have used some other ways of learning?

www.ricpublications.com.au

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.

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 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 would affect their self-esteem. Although the activities provided would benefit all students, good spellers with no errors may not be motivated to work on the unit. • Teachers may decide to incorporate partner testing of a selected amount of words each day, with results recorded formally

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

or 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. Again, errors are recorded and transferred.

Photocopiable recording sheets are outlined below.

Individual spelling records can be kept (see page 72). 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.

Dictation 1. 2. 3. 4.

The amateur golfer was given excellent advice by the officer in the popular golf association. Unfortunately, she did not possess sufficient physical strength to compete against the winner. We advise everyone to take out private health cover before they become a patient in a hospital. The writer was a genius, particularly when writing humour, but when it came to doing simple chores such as cooking sausages, he was not very efficient. 5. It took a lot of persuasion to stop the feud between the two families and get to the central reason behind the cause. 6. After extra encouragement by his coach, the young athlete immediately showed improvement. 7. The advantage of using that fibre to make the cord is that it will be more efficient in repelling water.

Dictation 1. From our viewpoint in the seclusion of the shady rocky outcrop, we could appreciate the beauty of the azure blue sea. 2. We came to the conclusion that, on this occasion, the explosion was not caused by a collision between two vehicles. However, there was some confusion as to the cause. 3. In her leisure time, it gave her a lot of pleasure to make the beautiful patchwork quilt that her daughter would treasure. 4. The decision to administer euthanasia to very ill elderly pets, means that they have a painless death. 5. An exclusion area on the sand dunes was marked out after the amount of erosion caused by the storm had been measured. 6. The rescue team reviewed his condition and decided he would probably need a transfusion to replace the blood he had lost through his serious cuts and abrasions. 7. The seizure of the engine occurred when we were in a queue at the lights at the division of the highway. 8. We were under the illusion that fewer people were going to attend the barbecue and we would all fit undercover.

Dictation 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

The officials only gave permission for juveniles to attend the social. It is no exaggeration that an animal has a big appetite when it comes out of hibernation. We all cooperated to shift the large chrome bumper off the concrete slabs. The doctors anticipated that the gangrene would continue to spread and the flesh would decompose. Even though the prisoner apologised for his abusive behaviour, the tension was unbearable and he was put into solitude. 6. We went off into groups to have a discussion on the meaning of the words magnitude, glucose, obsolete and vaccination. 7. The advertisement they are producing for radio about the ozone layer will precede the one that will be produced for television.

Students gradually add to a bank of words they are unsure of how to spell, remembering to check to see if a word is listed before asking for it to be written. For example: space matches ship or craft, and can also have s, ed or ing added to it. Variation: Students ask questions requiring a yes/no response to guess a mystery spelling word. The student is then required to form the word correctly on the board. For example: When adding a suffix beginning with a vowel to a word ending with e, the e is dropped before adding the suffix. e.g. hesitate/hesitating, vote/voted, but not in noticeable (the e is retained to keep the soft c sound)
