For the 8 times table, I used the method outlined in the JUMP Math program. Here is an image from the board along with a brief explanation of how it works. A detailed set of instruction is listed in the handout the students have.

2. Begin in the tens column and start from 0 and count up to 4
YOU WILL NOW HAVE THE PRODUCTS FOR 1-5 ON THE 8 TIMES TABLE
3. Repeat step one (1.) in another column starting with 8 in the ones column.
4. Begin in the tens column and count up from 4 until you have reached 8.
YOU WILL NOW HAVE COMPLETED THE PRODUCTS FOR THE 6-10 ON THE 8 TIMES TABLE.
I am not sure if I properly placed the website link on spells for the Spelling assignment due on Friday. Here is the link to some sample spells done by some students around the world. I am sure a search on Google will allow you to find some more creative ideas.

One of the questions concerns writing a spell using some of the list words:
I will do an example:
Ingredients:
- snake's eyeball
- toad's skin
- lizard's tongue
I use my voice to cast this spell to guide you to life you will live well
With the paste of a snake's eye, the crispness of a toad's skin, and stretched tongue of a lizard
Listen to my words and rub a palm-full of this blend upon your brow
Take one deep breath and walk through this door; your life will never be the same again
