Spelling
Most weeks, students are receiving a spelling list. We discuss the meanings of the words at the beginning of the week and test at the end of the week. I usually assign ABC spelling in cursive as homework on Mondays and a practice spelling test at home the night before we test at school. Students also have an opportunity to practice these words during their Guided Reading independent times. When students are practicing the words at home, please make sure they are also understanding the meanings/ definitions of the words.
