At Smart Boarding School, we understand the importance of having the right resources when teaching young learners how to spell. That’s why we’ve created a FREE Kindergarten Spelling Words resource that you can download by simply clicking the button at the bottom of this page. This resource is perfect for early years teachers, parents, and homeschoolers looking to help students practice spelling foundational words in a fun and engaging way.

What is the Kindergarten Spelling Words Resource?

Our Kindergarten Spelling Words resource is a 5-page downloadable set designed to help students practice spelling a range of early words. Each page focuses on a different activity that reinforces the spelling of common words students encounter in kindergarten. These pages are also versatile and can be used for spelling activities in higher grades or for any students who are working on improving their spelling skills.

Classroom Ideas and Activities for Using Kindergarten Spelling Words

Here are some creative ways you can integrate this resource into your classroom or homeschool routine:

• Spelling Bingo: Create a fun game by turning the words from the Kindergarten Spelling Words list into a bingo card. Call out words, and have students place a marker on the corresponding word on their cards. This activity encourages active listening, word recognition, and reinforces spelling.

• Vowel Sorting: Give students a list of words and have them identify and sort the words by their vowel sounds. This activity reinforces phonemic awareness and helps students engage with the spelling words in a hands-on way.

• Partner Spelling Practice: Pair up students and give each pair a list of spelling words. One student says a word while the other writes it down. Then they switch roles. This activity helps reinforce spelling, listening, and pronunciation while allowing students to practice together.

• Spelling with Letter Tiles: Using letter tiles or magnetic letters, have students build words from the Kindergarten Spelling Words resource. This tactile approach helps younger students connect sounds with letters, reinforcing the correct spelling of the words.

• Writing Sentences: Challenge students to use the spelling words in simple sentences. This activity not only helps with spelling but also develops sentence-building and writing skills.

• Spelling Word Scavenger Hunt: Hide spelling word cards around the classroom. When a student finds a word, they must say it aloud and use it in a sentence. This game keeps students engaged and reinforces their ability to read and spell the words.
