They will click an empty cell under the correct heading and type.
This could be done collaboratively or individually. You could also teach them to sort each list into ABC
order with the SORT ASCENDING [A-Z] tool.
Use the Windows Sound Recorder (START | ACCESSORIES | ENTERTAINMENT | SOUND RECORDER) to have students practice the SH and TH sound in each of the spelling words for the week.
