Spelling, Language

This lesson can be used with any list of spelling words. Start the lesson by discussing how some words make us think of other words because we can find a relationship between the words. Give a few examples, i.e.: Milk makes me think of cow, because cows give milk.

 Problem:

The students will find many, different, and unusual relationships using the words in the spelling list.

 Activities:

 Have the students write sentences using the following form:

______ makes me think of ________ because,

Encourage the students to find unusual relationships and be able to explain their answers by use of the 'because' found in each sentence. Let the students share their answers.
