Answer
Hi, I’m Natasha Nicholes from Houseful of Nicholes.
There is not a single “definitive guide” written up just for my homeschool word wall techniques, but here is how word walls tend to look in our home classroom based on what I share:
- I use simple visuals (like apple cutouts with letters) to anchor each letter of the alphabet
- New words get added under the correct letter as we encounter them in reading, conversation, or spelling work
- I tie word-wall words to what we are already doing: stories, science, spelling programs like VocabularySpellingCity’s Summer Program
- Kids help pick and use words in their own sentences, stories, and everyday speech so the wall is “living,” not just décor
If you’d like, I can turn this into a step‑by‑step routine you can follow each week at home—what ages and subjects are you working with?
