We will start spelling on August 14th. We will have a list of words every other week. Some of our words will be content based and some will be related back to spelling patterns. Students will have a list of choice board activities in their binders on Monday.
Dear Parents,
Your child has now received his/her first list of spelling words. Every other week (typically) your child will receive a new list of words. By Friday, your child must have completed 4 activities. Activity ideas are listed on the orange piece of paper in a sheet protector in your child's binder. On Friday, your child will turn in the four completed assignments and complete a spelling test on the words. Students will also pick 2-3 words to write in a complete sentence showing their understanding of the word and how to write a complete sentence (capitalization and punctuation marks). All of the assignments could be on one piece of paper or separate depending on the activities completed. Please note, students must turn in something for each of the assignment below even if it is a note for some of the activities as described in the activity. Students are expected to complete a different activity each night of the week to ensure that these words and the spelling principles that they represent are mastered.
