This is the first word wall the caught my eye. I love the simplicity of it, and how it's not in your face like some other word walls I've seen. I would have this up on a wall in my classroom and use it like a typical word wall. I would have student's go up and look for words to spell before asking me, and have them practice words during word work, or station time.

I would use this in a kindergarten or first grade classroom. After reviewing a sound, I would have a student of the week that would get to place the magnets with the pictures in the correct box. The rest of the class would have to decide if the magnet was placed in the right sound box. Throughout the year, more and more pictures will be added, and new pictures can get added as more questions are asked about how to spell certain words.

I really like the idea of a portable word wall. It allows for the students to take the word rings down to help with spelling, or to help with a word work job. You can add words as the year goes on, like frequently misspelled words, word study words, and the grade level list of words. It's truly portable, and it's a great space saver in the classroom!
