3. Compound Sentences Homework Correction
I want to see everyone’s homework in front of them.
Please take out a red pen (or any color that is different from your pencil)
I will need volunteers to help me as we correct on the board!

4. QUIZ: LC 1.1- put everything away except for a pencil and half sheet of paper
QUIZ: LC Name:
Date:
Period: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
Ashley: I am going to have them peer-correct this quiz!

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. Let me show you before you do it!!
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 ie or ei are often misspelled. ***Remember the saying: i before 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 i when 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!! 1.) cry (-ing) 2.) try (-ed) 3.) beauty (-fy)
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 Can someone explain why these are spelled this way??
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?

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

17. Before we move on…
We will need to know the difference between consonants and vowels. Can someone explain what the difference is??
Consonants are letters such as: b, c, d, p, w, v, r, s, etc.
Vowels include: a, e, i, o, u, and sometimes y
