figure out what is special about the word.

Rhyming Helpers
If you can match a new list word to a word
you know with the same spelling at the end,
you will have two words that rhyme. Then
the old word can be a helper for the new
word.
One of your new spelling words is dream.
You already know how to spell team.
Team is the rhyming helper for dream.
Rhyming Helper New spelling word
team dream
Both words have the same ending. Now you can remember how the ending
of dream is spelled. It is just like team!
Sometimes, thinking about the rhyming words in a short sentence will help
you remember how they work together.
I play on a dream soccer team.
Watch out! Some words rhyme but they have different spellings.
Those are NOT rhyming helpers.
The word seem sounds like dream, but the rhyming sound is spelled in a
different way. Seem is not a rhyming helper.
team dream seem

Dividing Long Words
Long words can be hard to learn to spell. The Dividing Long Words
strategy can help you spell these words.
Use syllables to make long words easier to spell.
Step 1
Say the word slowly. Listen for the syllables.
Step 2
Write the word and draw lines between
the syllables.
Step 3
Study the word one syllable at a time.
Here are three more long words. They have been divided into parts
to show you how the Dividing Long Words strategy works.
beautiful = beau ti ful celebration = cel e bra tion
refreshment = re fresh ment
Long words are easier to spell when you break them into smaller parts.

Pronouncing for Spelling
We spell some words wrong because we say them wrong.
Say a word very carefully to hear all of its sounds. This is called the
Pronouncing for Spelling strategy.
Step 1
Say the word slowly and carefully.
Listen to the sound of each letter.
Step 2
Say the word again as you write it.
