So how does the novice speller hone his or her craft at home? By spelling constantly, at breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Each of the warm, inspirational and aspirational notes in Lunchbox Words features a Bee-selected early spelling word used in context and accompanied by its definition and pronunciation, a quick and easy spelling lesson, and an illustrated joke or quote. These mini-lessons are bite-sized and easily sharable--perfect for tucking in a book bag, lunchbox, or coat pocket whenever your speller is on the go. |
