Words are a little more difficult in this spelling dictionary which students expand as they go. The format is much the same as in the original, though there are a few more pages of columns for each letter (3 is still the maximum). Besides columns to list family, friends, and classmates, there are also lists for the names of the days and months, contractions, the 50 states, numbers, and ordinals. 88 pages. ~ Zach
Category Description for Words I Use When I Write

It's a spelling dictionary young writers expand upon as they learn new words. The entry for each letter starts off with a list of words and is followed by a number of empty columns (3 pages of columns is the most for any one letter) where students can write other words they want to be able to reference in the future. Columns are also included for listing colors, family, friends, classmates, and pets; and some other lists provided are days of the week, months of the year, contractions, numbers, and ordinals.

The second volume, More Words I Use When I Write, contains words that are a little more difficult. It is set up in much the same format as the original, though there are a few more pages of columns for each letter (3 is still the maximum). Besides columns to list family, friends, and classmates, there are also lists for the names of the days and months, contractions, the 50 states, numbers, and ordinals. 88 pgs. ~ Zach

1 Question
Why did you choose this?

The original "Words I use when I write" was really helpful to my beginner writer, so I decided to get my 4th grader something a bit older.

Looking to use as the vocabulary journal (supplement to core curriculum)

I love the way this book is so helpful!

Our students have been using them for many years.
