Spelling
What's happening at school?
Every unit students will have a different group of spelling words that correlate with a specific sound spelling or prefix/suffix that we are studying that unit in class. Each Friday (or the last day of the week) will be the official spelling test for the week. We will be using different ways of practicing our spelling words in class throughout the unit.
what should be happening at home?
Students will be sent home with a word sort that correlates with the sound spelling we are working on throughout the unit. Word sorts should be returned to your student's star book each night so they have it for the rest of the week. Practicing/working with the words at home will help students be more successful when the sound spellings are tested at school. Choose different engaging ways to practice spelling words from the list linked below.
