Understanding how to spell is vitally important, especially for our young readers and writers. Taking the time to study spelling words provides an amazing support for learning to read. But often times, spelling is taught as a list of rules to learn (with a long list of exceptions) or as haphazard words to memorize. Instead of focusing on how different our English words are, why not group them together according to how similar they are?

Word Study is spelling approach in which words are grouped and studied according to their similarities. Similar words are analyzed in a hands-on, developmentally appropriate fashion, helping kids to make sense of how words are constructed in the English language (our language is more regular than you might expect).

Learn How to Spell with Word Sorts

At the heart of the word study approach are word sorts. Words are studied that share a common feature. In this example with my 3rd grader, we studied words with the endings of -ed and -ing. In this particular case, I chose the words directly from his reading and wrote them on the blank word sort template in the back of Words Their Way. He cut them out and we sorted the words together, based on what was done to the base word before adding the endings -ed and -ing.

Once the words were sorted into their columns, I posed this problem to him: Why do you think we double the last letter in some base words before we add -ing and -ed and then do nothing to other base words? We analyzed the base words in each column together. We talked about what was similar about all the base words under the “nothing” category and again in the “double” column.

Together, we created a generalization (or rule) of why the last letters of base words should or shouldn’t be doubled. I stated, “If our generalization is true, then it should work for other base words, too.” We took a word walk through the book and found even more words that fit under each column (looking for common features).

Word Sorts for All Ages

Word sorts are a hands-on way to teach kids how to spell, starting with preschoolers all the way through high school. These sorts are adapted as picture sorts (for the very young) or word meaning sorts (with Greek and Latin word parts for older students). Words Their Way has several word sorting books, which you can read about here, that fit any stage of spelling development.

I’m also SUPER EXCITED to have the opportunity to launch a series of spelling apps, based on the word study approach. Our first app is called Short Vowel Word Study and features word sorts among other spelling activities for word families and longer short vowel words. Our next project is already in the making, with a Long Vowel Word Study app, so stay tuned!

Short Vowel Word Study app is available on iTunes or Google Play for $2.99.

Learning how to spell takes time and diligence. But I believe that it is a worthy investment for all our learners, from preschool to high school!

Word Study Resources are plentiful, but sometimes they confuse the point of instruction or they are mere worksheets! In this quick read, I want to share 3 helpful resources to help you build stronger readers and writers with early readers and transitional readers.

But first, a quick definition of word study.

Our friends over at Reading Rockets say, “Word study” is an alternative to traditional spelling instruction. It is based on learning word patterns rather than memorizing unconnected words. This article describes the word study approach.”

The only thing I’d change to this definition is “spelling instruction”. Word study is so much more than just spelling! It all types of word knowledge: meaning, structure, usage, etc.

(Photo Courtesy of Gift Habeshaw)

What is Word Study?

Word Study is:

Recognizing patterns in word sounds.
Recognizing and using conventional spelling patterns.
Finding connections between word meanings.
Analyzing words based on word parts and roots.

If you’d like more detailed information on the research and science behind word study, I recommend this page from our sister site: Spiral WarmUps, Knowledge Base.

Word Study Resources

Let’s jump into this! What are some word study resources that are engaging and that are more than mere worksheets?

Real resources that engage students, are simple to use, and get results for reading and writing? That’s what I’m sharing with you here – 3 word study resources:

Context Clues Strategies
Free Spelling Videos
Word Work from Jennifer Serravallo

Context Clues

First on the list is a set of word meaning strategies for teaching context clues. In this article, you’ll see How to Teach Context Clues. I love this resource because it really is a set of strategies you can use with any text, any material, and for any age group!

5 Ways to Teach Context Clues

Free Spelling Review

This warm-up website is full of word study resources and has paid memberships, but there’s also a free membership (not just a trial) that has more than enough warm-ups for spelling review to last almost an entire school year! It’s SpiralWarmUps.com.

Here are three of the free spelling units you can start using today with your students. I really think you’ll love how students engage with this word study resource.

Spelling 1

This is a 10-day unit for 2nd and 3rd graders who need practice with vowels, digraphs, and consonant blends. It features a variety of activities all in an online video format!

Spelling 1 Advanced

This is another 10-day unit that builds on the previous one but is geared more to 3rd- and 4th-grade spelling problems:

spelling vowel digraphs,
consonant digraphs, and
consonant blends.

Spelling 3

There are more advanced units that teach how to spelling multi-syllabic words, including:

compound words,
prefixes, and
words with suffixes.

But Spelling 3 is worth mentioning here because it really targets those missing skills for transitional readers who have spelling challenges in grades 3-5. Spelling 3 focuses on inflected endings and double consonants.

The Reading Strategies Book

Yes, most of this amaaaazing book is for reading strategies, which I think you’ll really love! But the third chapter is dedicated to word study resources, activities, and lesson ideas. Or as Jennifer Serravallo calls it, “Supporting Print Work: Increasing Accuracy and Integrating Sources of Information”

Yikes, that’s a mouthful!

It’s not so much a material to use like the word study videos above. It’s more of lesson plans/activities to do. Here are a few activities from the third chapter that I think you’ll love!

Try, Try, Try Again: this strategy is for when you get to a trick word. It also offers you almost a dozen questions to ask readers as they attempt to decode.
Think (While You Read the Words): You’ll love the anchor chart on this one! It combines decoding and monitoring for meaning.
Apply Your Word Study to Book Reading: This is really where word study connects to reading! See the image below.

UPDATE:

The original blog post at this link was about the word study approach to teaching spelling. While the act of sorting words can be useful, I no longer believe that Words Their Way should be a core spelling curriculum because it does not include enough explicit instruction.

Stay tuned for a new series about teaching spelling in 2023!
