Spelling Tic-Tac-Toe

By next Friday you must complete the middle box, and choose two more activities for spelling homework for a total of three activities each week. Please underline spelling words on all pages. You may place several activities on one page to save paper. Italicized words may be on review tests in the future. A practice test at home Thursday is a great way to prepare.

Realistic Fiction
Write a story about something that could have really happened, but didn’t (hint: no magic, or talking animals in realistic fiction). Use at least 10 words. Underline them! / Triple Color Columns
Print each of your spelling words three times each, using a different color for each column.
Best handwriting: Tall letters touch the top line; short letters go to the middle; underground letters are – g, j, p, q, and y / Acrostic Fun
Use the five words in italics and choose 3 more to create an acrostic poem.
