More About This Resource
Teach first-grade students to spell with these Science of Reading-aligned, NO PREP, weekly Word Study Units.

Updated 8/23: Mini units added for suffix word endings (-s, -ing, ed), soft c & soft g, ea as in head.
Word study units are different from traditional spelling units. Instead of giving students a list of words to memorize each week, these word study units focus on a specific phonics skill. Students are given explicit instruction on the phonics pattern and then have activities throughout the week that allow them to practice the phonics skill, and investigate and discover the patterns in words.

- A research-based, SoR-aligned Scope and Sequence
- Spelling Screener – use for BOY assessment & progress monitoring
- Master Word Study List

- 3 Editable Practice Printables for Each Unit
