Spelling

Your child should have brought home a new spelling list yesterday.  Please study these lists at home.  I asked the children if they studied for our spelling test on Monday, most of them said they hadn’t.  Please support your children in improving their spelling by studying with them at home each week.  Many of their spelling tests were stapled or taped into their planners.

If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask.

Thank you, Ms. Amy

Spelling / Vocabulary

We started our spelling / vocabulary this past week.  We will start a new unit every Tuesday.  Your children will write a spelling list to take home each Tuesday.  Please ask them for the list so they can study throughout the week.  Last week we talked about prefixes, this week we will be learning about suffixes and synonyms.
