Our third grade team uses Words Their Way and differentiates for the entire grade by leveling spelling groups. We purchased the different level books with the spelling sorts/lists. They are a great time saver! Brenda Third Grade Teacher Rootstown Elementary School

My name made it on someone else's post. I have a very differentiated class. I have two kiddos that are beginning second grade in reading. Therefore their spelling is about that as well. I also have 3rd /4th grade level, 5th grade level and a sprinkling of great spellers. I teach a 5th grade classroom but have all title and resource kiddos. I'm looking for a program to fit all those needs. I have heard nothing but good things about Words Their Way I have purchased the main book but am looking to see what other resources anyone knows about that works with it. I will appreciate any suggestions. Sent from my iPad On Oct 9, 2012, at 9:08 AM, Renee G <share2lear...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm confused.
