This focused word-study resource combines spelling practice, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. Students learn the meaning of restaurant, practice its tricky letter combinations, and use the word in meaningful contexts.
A humorous reading passage about a goat visiting a pretend restaurant makes practice memorable while giving students opportunities to answer questions, find text evidence, and explain their thinking.

Missing-letter activities, word unscrambling, and correct-spelling choices
