Welcome to other Blog of Catherine Crosswell. Here you will find me lining up spellings that my children have been given to learn, then turning them into poems/tales.

The Blog of Spellings : The Two Blogs : Return of the Blog
Spelling Lists have returned to this Blog.
I've missed the dwelling of the spellings
and the continuation of the list
so I'm putting them right back
With a happy waving of a fist.
I've always enjoyed writing lists and lining up words. Now it seems that lists have another purpose.
A gift to lift.
Spelling Poems will always be written in the way the spellings are given.
Please do contribute, comment, write your own, send spellings. So far I've had 3 contributors.
I've used Spellings for a 6, 7 and 10 year old. The seven year old poems have frustrated me as the spellings have been computer generated to comply with end of key stage 1 SATS. Hopefully the impersonal change does comes across, I've struggled with these but have forced myself to do them. Hopefully the new school year will be more human.
I'm fascinated how words given, trigger other words -a bit like the game word association. I'm also curious whether mood plays a big part in the outcome.
Mustn't pause, mustn't hesitate.
