Making a Spelling Log

This book gives you a place to keep word lists of your own. It's called a SPELLING LOG! You can make a Spelling Log on page 125.

While you read, look for words that are INTERESTING. Listen for NEW WORDS used by people on radio and television.

Include words that you need to use when you WRITE, especially words that are hard to spell.

Before you write a word in your Spelling Log, check the spelling. Look up the word in a DICTIONARY or a THESAURUS, or ask for help.

To help you understand and remember the meaning of a word, write a DEFINITION, a SYNONYM, or an ANTONYM. Use your word in a sentence.
