                                        Ways to Practice

                                 Use the A–Z section in the free Good and
                                 Beautiful Letter Tiles app to have the child
                                 spell words listed on the chart above. You
                                 dictate the word (say it aloud) and have
                                 the child create it with the tiles.

                                 Give the child a fun pointer (curly straw,
              MASTERED
                                 feather, etc.) to use to point to each word
                                 as he or she says it.
