Spelling List 18

Spelling words this week: grow, open, away, started, passing, table, invite, crispy, she'll, wisely, give*, people*. Words with an *asterisk are sight words and need to be memorized.

Sentences: The store will open for the sale at ten. Many people will be there.

Bonus sentences: It will be hard to get inside. I hope I don't spend too much cash.

Practice at home! We need to get our spelling scores higher!

Book Reports

We have started book reports in class and next week they'll be added to the weekly homework! Students will read a book at their level and fill out a report form about the story they read. All book report forms being sent home will have been introduced in class already. Therefore students should be familiar with the report forms. We ask that the work is done by the students but supervised by parents. After school cannot accommodate helping students with this type of homework assignment. Book reports will be in addition to all other weekly homework. Enjoy reading with your child and helping them be sure to understand what they read! Keep on reading!

The Last Quarter!

Well, its the 4th quarter at last! We've come so far, but there's still so much to do...

This week's spelling is list 17: way, try, such, part, glass, stuff, former, show, letter, barnyard, sure*, they*. (Words with an *asterisk are sight words and should be memorized.)

Sentences: Jake left his backpack at school. His spelling list was in it. Kelvin gave him the list of words to learn. Jake thanked Kelvin for being willing to help.

Also this week: Tuesday, March 22 picture day. Be sure to fill out the packet and send money if you are interested.
