Spelling - Next week's spelling words will have the short a sound. The procedure is that we introduce the words on Monday and each day we use a variety of techniques to practice. Students then take a test over the words. We believe in Mastery Learning so students have a chance to retake the test.
We also will send home practice spelling worksheets. Students do these in class and then can take extra home if they want to so they can have more practice spelling and working on writing. We want to make this fun and not stressful or a chore.
Next week's Short a words are: an, had, add, bad, cat, pass, can, ran
Sight words we are learning for next week are: away, call, come, every, hear, said
These are the challenge words for our spelling test.
