Well, I decided to enjoy my winter break. I'm not going to apologize for that. It was awesome. I slept a lot and watched way too much Netflix.
I am looking forward to getting back into a regular blogging schedule though. Today, I have a freebie for you. My middle school students are doing SAT vocabulary words this year. Back in October I made a vocabulary menu for them with writing choices themed for the month for them to choose from to do a writing assignment with their vocabulary words. I decided to make another one this month and plan to keep making them each month. It is a fun way to give your students choice and challenge to be a bit creative.
You can get a copy HERE. I made a version for vocabulary and a version for spelling. How do you give you students choice in practicing their spelling and vocabulary words?
Yes! I totally give them a choice. We don't have a ton of time for spelling in class, but I like to play games and appeal to a variety of learning styles when we do. I also include it in their homework, but they have the option to practice any way that feels best for them and their family. I love Spelling City as a technology way to practice, but many of my students play the games they learn in class as their chosen method.

I put my vocabulary lists in Spelling City as well just because it is an easy way for them to practice. Games are always a fun and easy to differentiate.
