Frequently Misused Words Video


Looking around through YouTube, I found this video done by an 8th grade class illustrating commonly misused words.  Mostly these are misspellings, but I thought it was cute and fit right in with my weekly Word Wednesday's misused words theme. This might be a great video to show your kidlings. For more Communication FUNdamentals, please visit Art of Eloquence.com!

    Very nice! I think I need to show that to my high school class undertaking their first project. You should’ve heard the groans when I told them I was holding them to correct spelling and punctuation on this project! We could make a million of these videos, JoJo. I have lots and lots of words that would fit in. :)

    Want more free leads? LOL Just Kidding!!! When I see desert/dessert, I always remember being taught that dessert has 2 s’s because you want more of it. :)

    Tina, I love that! What a great way to remember.

    This would make a great PowerPoint project for homeschoolers who are studying homophones. Any time I could use a multisensory approach with my kids, I did. They learned and remembered so much more that way.
