One fun thing we did recently for just spelling in general: charades! I mentioned this on another thread so my apologies for the repeat wink
We just took the list of words, ds wrote them out on slips of papers so we could pick and then we all took turns acting them out - I really do feel it helped with visualizing the words later! The acts we put on were sort of like little stories to go with the words, kind of like some of the rhymes and things people have mentioned.
This was so fun we will definitely be doing this again often.
