We are studying compound words this week as our spelling words and I have been trying to come up with some fun ways to practice spelling these challenging words. I woke up this morning with the song "Cupid Shuffle" in my head (don't ask...it all goes back to a workshop I did) and thought what if we did the "Compound Word Shuffle" but danced as we sang and spelled the words. My kids seem to like to move and sing so maybe they will like it. We'll see...
Check out YouTube for a video on how to do the dance. I changed it up and used the words "east" and "west" instead of left and right since we're also talking about cardinal directions this week, too. Hey, you have to integrate where you can! :)
