Spelling Begins

We started our spelling this morning with a pretest.  We will do spelling almost every week with a pretest at the beginning of the week and a post test at the end.  The student's correct their own pretest right after taking the test, I double check their work, and we send it home on Monday.  We'll have a bonus word each Friday on the post test, which they won't be able to practice for.  The bonus word will only help and can't hurt them.  Most of the time I try to find words that go along with the letter combinations they are learning, although sometimes it's an unrelated word that I want them to know (like how to spell the teacher's name).


Also, school pictures are in and will be sent home tonight!
