Fifth Grade Spelling and Vocabulary Sample (Teacher's Manual, Workbook, Dictionary)

The Fifth Grade Spelling and Vocabulary Teacher's Manual makes managing your child's learning a breeze. It provides an overview of lessons, organizes pre-tests and post-tests, and provides an answer key for the workbook. However, instruction is more independent at this level, so the manual provides less instructional material than our other levels. 

The Fifth Grade Spelling and Vocabulary curriculum features weekly lists of spelling words chosen to build vocabulary. Daily lessons emphasize the spelling structure and meaning of words. Each list has some phonetic or spelling theme, such as a common vowel sound syllable, suffix, or prefix.

 

The Fifth Grade Spelling and Vocabulary Workbook will increase vocabulary levels while learning to spell more complex words. Five workbook pages per weekly list have some phonetic or spelling theme, such as a common vowel sound syllable, suffix, or prefix.

The exercises follow a general pattern:

  • Day 1: Word introduction, such as writing words as syllables to emphasize simple syllables within complex words.
  • Day 2: Going beyond the list, students explore variations of words, grammar, or related words.
  • Day 3: Students use words in the context of sentences to emphasize meaning.
  • Day 4: This is our variety day. Exercises might emphasize sentence usage or meaning.
  • Day 5: Students write words based on clues (short informal definitions).

The back of the workbook is the Turtle Hunt Game. Directions are in the workbook and Teacher's Manual. In addition, printable directions are in the Resource Center on this website.


    The Fifth Grade Spelling and Vocabulary Make Your Own Dictionary features all the words from the Spelling and Vocabulary Workbook arranged alphabetically with ample line space to write one or two definitions. Students find and write definitions in the book every week based on spelling lists. By the end of the course, students will have created a helpful dictionary of words they have learned.

    It puts previously learned words at the student's fingertips to become a helpful tool for reviewing and mastering vocabulary words.
