EE Double E and Learning to Spell

I’ve already posted on how we’re making up stories that go along with Alphabet Island to help us remember spelling words with EE and EA. Well, here’s my seven and nine year old’s story about the TOWN:  My comments are in (parentheses)

Grace’s (7) EE Story: The Town

There once was a QUEEN. People would CHEER for QUEEN Elizabeth the third. (care of Phineas and Ferb. Who ever said cartoons weren’t educational?) And people would help each other a lot and while some CREEP on each other. It was a okay place to be, but QUEEN Elizabeth the third wasn’t happy with her people and her husband died a long time ago.

The End

And Timothy’s (9) EE story: The Town

Once upon a time there was a MEEK QUEEN that everyone would GREET her. One day a TEEN was about to CREEP on the QUEEN and she saw him and told her guards to chase them, but they got away. The bad guys were full of GLEE. The QUEEN was sad so the people CHEERED for her and she was happy.

The End

In the town there are cars. If you SPEED, you will get pulled over by a cop. On the cars there are WHEELS that drive on the STREET.  A JEEP can drive up a STEEP hill. You have to use your FEET and your HEEL to press the pedal. Your KNEE is cramped.

The End

They’re working on EA stories about the BEACH and other EE stories I’ll post another day!
