Personal Word Wall for Writer's Journal
Students can use this Personal Word Wall to record words that they want to (or need to) learn to spell. We have students keep these in their writing journals and use them to record words that they want to use in their writing but do not know how to spell.
NOTE: We discourage using this as a way to organize spelling words. Spelling words should be organized around spelling patterns, not the first letter in the word.
