5. Spelling!! • Today, we will be focusing on how to correct frequently misspelled words. Incorrect spelling not only is difficult to read, but can often times change the meaning of your sentences!! • We will concentrate on the following items to better our spelling: • Homophones • Words with vowel combinations • Words with suffixes • Words ending in the f sound • Difference between commonly misused words!

6. Review on Homophones!! • What are homophones again?? • Right!! They are words that sound the same but have different meanings and spellings. • Why would knowing about homophones be important for spelling correctly?? Is it important?? • You must make sure that you choose the spelling of the word that matches the meaning you want.

7. FOLDABLE • I am going to pass out a piece of paper. • You must do the following before we get started: • Fold it HOT DOG STYLE!! • Cut THREE slits…making FOUR flaps. Only cut on one side of the paper. • Label each flap in the following manner: • Flap one: -ie and -ei • Flap two: -f • Flap three: suffixes • Flap four: their, they’re, there and it’s, its Let me show you before you do it!!

8. First Flap: -ie and -ei • The vowel combinations ieor ei are often misspelled. ***Remember the saying: ibefore e except after c, or when sounded like ay as in neighbor and weigh. • Examples: receive and believe • Help me with these examples: (They will go in your foldable): 1.) br____f 2.) fr____ght 3.) rec____ver 4.) w____gh 5.) dec____ve 6.) p____rce 7.) p____r 8.) r____ndeer • 1.) brief • 2.) freight • 3.) receiver • 4.) weigh • 5.) deceive • 6.) pierce • 7.) pier • 8.) reindeer

9. Second Flap: -f • The f sound at the end of words can be spelled –ff or –ough. • Examples: Stuff, enough; gruff, bluff; rough, tough

10. Third Flap: Suffixes (write small) • A suffix is something added to the end of something else. • Examples: Funnyfunnier. Heavyheaviest. Loselosing. • 1.) When a word ends in a consonant plus –y, change y to iwhen adding a suffix. • Example: lazy + -ly = lazily. Happy + ness = happiness • EXCEPTION: Most suffixes beginning with –i. • Example: try + ing = trying. cry + ing = crying • 2.) When a word ends in –e, drop the e when adding a suffix beginning with a vowel. • Example: move + able = moveable. drive + ing = driving. • 3.) When a word ends in –e, make no change when adding a suffix beginning with a consonant. • Example: peace + ful = peaceful. brave + ly = bravely.

11. Practice Time!! • Can you help me? • In your notebook, spend 5 minutes writing the correct spelling for the following words using what you just learned about suffixes: • 1.) cry (-ing) • 2.) try (-ed) • 3.) beauty (-fy) • 4.) move (-able) • 5.) late (-ly) • 6.) mystery (-ous)

12. Answers • 1.) crying • 2.) tried • 3.) beautify • 4.) moveable • 5.) lately • 6.) mysterious • Can someone explain why these are spelled this way??

13. Fourth Flap: Their, they’re, there and it’s, its • They’re means they are • Example: They’re studying English • There refers to a place • Example: My car is parked over there • Their is a possessive adjective • Example: Their jacket is in the closet • Its is the possessive pronoun; it modifies a noun • Example: The mother cat carried its kitten in its mouth. • It's is a contraction of it is or it has. • Example: I think it's going to rain today. (Contraction of it is)

14. A Quick Lesson on Their, There, They’re • What’s the difference between their, there, and they’re? • http://www.brainpop.com/english/grammar/theyretheirandthere/

15. Affect vs Effect (in your notebook) • The words affect and effect are often misspelled and misused. • The majority of the time you use affect with an a as a verb and effect with an e as a noun. • Affect with an a means "to influence," as in, "The arrows affected Ardvark," or "The rain affected Amy's hairdo.“ • Effect with an e has a lot of subtle meanings as a noun, the meaning "a result" seems to be at the core of all the definitions. For example, you can say, "The effect was eye-popping," or "The sound effects were amazing," or "The rain had no effect on Amy's hairdo."

16. Let’s look at more commonly misspelled words • Can you explain why words like these would be misspelled often?? • To, too, two • Your, you’re • Tough • Rough • Friends • Believe • Receive • deceive
