A user-friendly format makes teaching and learning easier
· Word sort lessons are now broken down into 7 sections: Generalization, Explore Meaning, Sorting and Discussion, Extend, Apply, and Additional Words.
o Clearly stated generalizations at the beginning of each lesson highlight what students will learn from each activity.
o Extend sections provide follow-up activities that go beyond sorting and involve students in word hunts, listening exercises, and more.
o Apply sections for each sort ask students to use the generalization to develop strategies for spelling unfamiliar words.
