Teacher Resources For Your Week Teaching Tip: Reinforce Spelling In Your Class By: Teachnology Staff 1. Post all new spelling and/or vocabulary words. 2. Have students "Say" the word, "Spell" the word out loud, then "Write" the word. Finally have students "Draw" a picture of something that represents the word. 3. Have students use the words in a story. 4. Present the words to students in chunks. For example the word together. Present it in three chunks. To-Get-Her. 5.
