Help students decode and spell words, as well as learn geography with Patiricia Cunningham's Making Words strategy. Children will learn how to decode and spell geographical places through 160 lessons in which the secret word is a specific geographical location or term. Each lesson includes three steps: Making Words, Sorting Words into Patterns, and Transferring to Reading and Writing. There is a Geographical Places Index so teachers can choose lessons relevant to topics studied that day. Also included are reproducible letter strips. 240 pages
