Each week, students will be given a list of 25 spelling words. A copy of the weekly spelling words will be sent home on Mondays. If an additional copy is needed, please locate the list on this site. Students will be required to complete a spelling homework assignment each night. These assignments are meant to help students practice the meaning and spelling of the words. A spelling test will be given on Friday.
In addition to the spelling words, you will find vocabulary practice that corresponds to our focus story in Reading Street.
