The theme units were chosen to represent common experiences of children in fifth grade, along with general grade-level words. These topics may relate to other subjects you are teaching and could augment other lessons. For example, Helping Others could be used with an SEL lesson focusing on developing empathy. Seeing the World could be used with a social studies lesson. Mother Nature Rules! and Wildlife could extend a science lesson about weather or animal habitats. Friendly Competition could be used when students must spend recess inside on a rainy day.

Real-world topics and themes include:

• Best Friends
• Friendly Competition
• Mother Nature Rules!
• Let's Go Out to Eat!
• It Takes All Kinds
• Helping Others
• Seeing the World
• Wildlife
• Extra Practice Worksheets

Fun practice worksheets using words from each week of the Building Spelling Skills series. These worksheets can be used to enrich weekly lessons from Building Spelling Skills or for additional independent practice to supplement any spelling program.
